An excellent wine from a not great year. Gorgeous on the nose. Plum, cassis, lavender, and milk chocolate. Just a bit weak on the finish. — 19 hours ago

Much lighter than other Rarecat Chardonnays I have had. I can taste lemons and pears, but not a whole lot more. I usually love all Rarecat wines, but this one leaves me with an overall impression of “Meh.” Perhaps this is an aberration. I will be sure to try another bottle soon. — 2 months ago

Delicious! Floral and citrus extravaganza. Lemon, lime, caramel, butter, honey, vanilla, and ginger. Elegant finish. Fabulous right now, but will probably keep for a while. — 2 months ago

Pretty tannic. Sour cherries, raspberries, and a bit of pepper and smoke. Okay, but not my favorite. If you have some in your cellar, drink it now. — 2 months ago
