Opened on March 30 and finished 2 days later. A big chardonnay in the sense of multiple flavors on the palate over a long finish. All of the flavors play well together and the wine is nicely integrated. Flavors include lime, banana, and vanilla. Crisp acidity and mineral elements, too. Really an excellent Chardonnay. Had on the first day with food and without food two days later. Very nice in either role.

Impossible to stop drinking this beauty. Notes of butter, banana, apricot and lime peel. Seductive texture, almost oily. On the palate, peach and raspberry with some mineral undertones. This is a winner. Paired marvelously with charcoal grilled salmon. Drinking great right now, so glad I have 5 more bottles to go.

It has been a year and a half since I last drank a bottle and the wine has improved especially as it got closer to room temperature. We took to the local seafood market which is a BYOB. White fruit on the nose, the palate was melon, apple and white plums with just the right amount of oak to balance it all out. Really went well with the variety of seafood it was paired with.

8/21/2022 - VDLT Wine Does not like this wine:
Long Weekend Lake Michigan; 8/19/2022-8/22/2022 (Leelanau County, MI): One note: vanilla milkshake. Boring and tedious after a few sips.
