Fooled Dad blind when I told him this was a young Puligny-Montrachet. Would have fooled me too.

One of the best American Chardonnays I've ever tasted. Rich, but never cloying. Fresh, but never sharp. Pure and pretty. Reminds one of a great Grand Cru Meursault. $63 retail.

Deeply textured, but also delicate and feminine. Something I've never said about Cali Chardonnay before.

Nice wine from a historic site. It's going to become something cool, I just don't know what yet. It has a definite warm climate signature, but light in alcohol and fruit, and not lacking acid

Stunning wine. The PMR is showing more floral and custardy than the other sites I've tried. Can't wait to see these with age!

John raytek is killing it with his chardonnays. This was fine but just wasn't wowing me like some of his other wines. Definitely prefer the porter-bass vineyard bottling over this one.
