Great as Pinots go but only good for this maker. These half bottles continue to perplex. — 6 months ago
This is a “wifey” rating…
Caramel and butterscotch notes on the nose and palate. Roasted pineapples and limes present on the mid palate, with a note of preserved citrus fruits. Evolving to a better place as it warms up in the glass. Getting better with bottle age. — 8 months ago
This wine tastes like warm California sunshine. I’d say it’s at the end of its pleasurable drinking window. Good mix of secondary/tertiary character — a day ago

Dry on the palate with lemons, apples, citrus, pears, spices, light oak, sea salt, light earth and minerals.
Long finish with limes and almonds.
This is a delicious Chardonnay from Napa Valley. Nicely balanced, complex and engaging. Tangy, soft and interesting. Feels like an upscale White Burgundy.
This Single Vineyard Chardonnay is still young, but already drinking beautifully, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years. Showing good potential to become a 94+ point wine.
Good right out of the bottle, and better when not too cold.
100% Chardonnay grapes were aged in (20% new) French oak barrels for 20 months.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
92 points.
