Classical Californian Wineries (Zurich): Tasted blind: Past its prime, showing lactic notes and oxidative notes. the wine still shows some flesh, power and richness but it is past its prime. Knowing that this bottle comes out of a very cool natural cellar I would expect that normally stored bottle are already past its prime for a few years. Drink

Aged beyond recommended time scale of 2004 quite nicely. Remarkable golden color. Fruit, oak and butter all blended incredibly. After being opened it gets better by the hour. I'm making smoked salmon appetizers with a bit of dill and a thin slice of radish and chilled, steamed shrimp right now to finish off the bottle. It's going to be a great night!

A delicious aged chardonnay, yellow-gold color, rich honey and citrus flavors.
