  Glad i popped this now, 3/4s of cork was completely wet and I was a bit concerned. The Wine is still good, but losing some power. Golden crisp yellow color. Light nose of lime zest, fresh herbs and subtle mushrooms. Crisp notes of lemon, lime, green apples, light cream and nutmeg. Finishes with big acidity and an added subtle earthiness. Back end loses freshness and adds a little bitterness to acidity. It still holds some of these balanced aspects, but it's losing steam. Drink soon to maximize its flavor.

  Very nice, but not overly acidic. Bright yellow color. Light herbaceous and lemon zest nose. Initial softness, subtle cream and apricots. Builds to bigger brightness towards finish, with lemon and hint of mushrooms and light lime zest

  Lovely Chardonnay in the manner of a white Burgundy. Clean and fragrant with just enough sur lie and oak presence to develop texture and more complex aromatics. Made utilizing the press juice from the top tier Chardonnays of the Hardscrabble and Avenius vineyards. 2013 was a good vintage for Linden. In a fine drinking window and not in danger of expiring soon.
