Consistent with 2 prior notes. This Chardonnay has aged very well. It remains very good

Second bottle over 2 months. This is a 12 year old Chardonnay cellared since release. Consistent notes. Rich gold color. Citrus, oak and honey fragrance. Full bodied, mature with citrus flavors, oak, vanilla and honey merging on palate with a long finish. Tannins remain. Remains very good to excellent

The wine is a deep yellow/gold color. It has fast legs. The body is medium/full. The nose has slightly faded but has just a touch of vanilla. There is still decent fruit and it has a smooth texture. Flavors well integrated of caramel, vanilla and a hint of grapefruit with medium acidity. It remains very enjoyable and should last another 4-5 years.

Tasty. Purchased at auction. Was concerned this was past prime. I was wrong. This is drinking beautifully right now. Rich and full. Well integrated oak. Wonderful lemon, apple and pear flavors. One bottle left. Drink soon.

Drinking really nicely - good acid structure gives nice backbone, but with some floral notes on the nose and a rich mouth feel. Clean finish, I like this a lot. Will probably keep another year or two.

Very nice feel, good oak but there is a hint too much of alcohol.

Very rich wine with well integrated vanilla oak, wet stones, lemon curd and lush mouthfeel. There is a bit of alcohol which peeks through on the midpalate. I think this will integrate over the next year.
