This is the last bottle of one of my all time favorite Chardonnays. Beautiful fruit as fresh as the day it was bottled. Floral and delicious on the nose and the palate. The fruit is so exceptional even at this juncture. Rich and voluptuous. It covers the palate with ripe pear, honeysuckle and limited oak influence. The texture is outstanding and the finish goes on and on. I will hold on to the memories of this fantastic bottle for years to come.

After drinking this bottle I am down to my last one of this luscious and rich Chardonnay. My heart aches that there will be no more vintages of this given the transition of the Walker Station label. I can only say that this is an incredible wine, rich and full with gorgeous purity of fruit. The mouth feel is gorgeous and the aromas burst with floral, citrus and lusciousness. I feel fortunate and privileged to have had this in my cellar. A great Chardonnay for the ages and thanks for the memories.

Clearly the wine of the night for me. This combines the elegance and pedigree with ripe, lucious fruit and palate coating pleasure. It is rich without being over the top, medium to full bodied and is as much a pleasure to drink on its own as with food- in this case a brown sugar smoked salmon and Thai shrimp salad. Sometimes you find a wine that provides all the things that make you glad you have this passion and interest. This wine does it for me and I will be sad when my last bottle is history.

With Paul Hobbs as winemaker and the beautiful fruit from this site you get a stellar effort. Rich and beautiful with nice weight and body. Perfect application of oak with a purity and rich fruit. Coats the palate and delivers both a hedonistic, yet elegant experience. Orchard fruit with little citrus influence. Beautiful effort!

Once again amazed and excited at this lovely expression of this varietal. White flowers on the nose with other floral elements. Nice bracing acidity initially that lifts this in the glass. As it warms a bit and gathers some additional air it rounds out and more tropical notes emerge. Refreshing and bright throughout with an amazing flavor profile.
