  The comments below are consistent with my experience. I enjoyed it, but if you don't like older whites or a more heavy-handed CA chard, stay away. If you like either or better, both, you'll enjoy this. Compared to an 06 Ridge MB I had six months ago, the Ridge was much more complex, with a Chablis like salinity on top of what you would expect, so I enjoyed that a lot more, but that's a high bar. In any case, still some pleasure left here, but I also wouldn't hold much longer.

  Lots of rich, lush ripe pear and golden apple fruit, but with enough structure and silky grip to hold it together. Delicious.

  Our last bottle, showing very mature with a deep yellow color and dominant butterscotch qualities. There's some orchard fruit and citrus elements mixed in as well, along with a bit of a botrytis quality. A good bit past prime for my palate, but not without some charm.
