Love this one, ripeness and subtle oak, just the right balance for a lovely California version of Chardonnay.

Light and easy. Soft and slightly boozy, agreeable. A fat golden retriever.

Good acid yet creamy (not buttery). Pear, orange, mineral. Maybe opened it a little young....

Very impressive. I don't seek out Chardonnay from Napa vineyards but the Failla team is wise on their approach.

Not as restrained and aromatic as the 2011. A bit more power, but still that long textural finish. Fantastic Chardonnay and proof that certain parts of Napa can produce some amazing Chards!
