Hold my phone, y'all, because I'm going to find a vat of this and dive in with a straw. Just... STUNNING. Fresh and alive. Zesty but with this mildew aroma that reminds me of an old rocking chair by the lake but with a salty minerality and long, lingering, exhilarating finish. I feel like I'm drinking from mother nature's bosom.

Agreed with Garrett Pierce one of the best if not the best NW Chardonnays I've ever had

Loads of pleasure. Tropical fruit of all colours. Even spicy to some extent. Not as overbearing thanks to very little oak. Enjoyed it very much. Would not cellar for many more years. Have fun now.

Tons of character. Earth, minerals and a bit of funk. Shy fruit, but a lot of density.
