Trout Gulch Vineyard Chardonnay

Monster acidity, wet stones with lemon, tangerine and green apple. Needs food but I think that kinda goes without saying. Definitely room for improvement with time

A wine to rival the Arnot-Roberts versions. An excellent wine.

Not as good as the bottle we had 2 years ago. All of the great lemon peel and minerality and texture and acid are still there - but this is oddly lacking on the mid palate, so you get a nice entry and exit but not a lot of meat in the middle.

Very nice - good salinity. Honey on the nose fades quickly.

Jun 18th, 2022Really loved this. Quite intense, racy, minerally, with wonderful acid and just a hint of fruit. A wine that demands your attention in the mouth. Very nice. Went quickly.

Jan 8th, 2022Seemed a bit muted after the power of the Krug, but a very nice, precise wine. Wet stone, lemon, saline.
