13' Bevan Ritchie Chardonnay. Had the 14' yesterday and wasn't impressed at this time. This is drinking wonderfully now. I would sit the 14 down for a bit. Edit- 30 minutes and this wine is even better.

1st wine of the day and so it begins.
I've talked about this one before. It's everything I love in a Chardonnay! Great way to get the games started for the day. I think wine drinking should be an Olympic event!

13' Bevan Ritchie Chardonnay . I'm thinking Ritchie vineyards is producing world-class Chardonnay now! Not that they haven't in the past. These last couple of vintages have been that much better! With several wineries now producing exceptional wine from this Vineyard.

Does Russell hold back on anything? People always say "balanced" I think Russell invented the wordπŸ˜‹This is another full-bodied rockstar of a wine. I've enjoyed some exceptional Chardonnays as of late. This is absolutely one of them. I want to thank
@Martin G Rivard for this outstanding Chard!!
