Morgan, Double L Vineyard Chardonnay, Santa Lucia Highlands

Absolutely incredible, liquid gold. I think this was in its absolute prime to drink. Well balanced, incredible nose. Perfect acidity, oak and ripe fruits on the nose. If I could by an entire case I would buy 5

Great!! I think these ‘15 Cali Chards I’ve been drinking are at or ever so slightly prime drinking age. Medium gold color. Nose of butter and lemongrass. Deep and complex. Butter, lemon, oak, and cream throughout. Medium plus finish.

I found this to be a Burgundian style Chard- nice minerality.

Enjoyed on the deck at 100 club with auntie annie and grandma, one of the first warm days of spring. Good value at restaurant at 60.00 but Is spending 40.00 at retail so many other chards to buy. Pear

Pear, key lime pie with coconut cream. Spicy, fragrant. Reasonably balanced but comes off flabby overall. Good value on the One Hundred Club list, but a poor value at SRP near $40.

More nunaced and fresh than the Highland 2014. About 800cs/year. Yes, bigger than Highland but much better balance. Popcorn palate, but also more room to contemplate relatively.

Light yellow color; ripe apple nose; ripe apple palate; medium finish

Oak city

light straw, nose dominated by oak, good concentration of fruit , some tropical notes.

Great tropical nose of pineapple and guava. Well balanced with mild oak and moderate acidity.

Clear and eith a deep lemon or pale gold. No rim change. Nose is clean with pronouced aromas of oak, fruit and oxidization or maybe just age. These older Morgan Chardonnays seem to show age characteristics at a very young age. Acidity is medium, body is medium = with pleasant flavors of butternut, browned butter and vanilla tones. Lovely palate after a difficult nose for me. Finish is medium maybe medium + with the aciditys and grip outrunning the body …

Still alive and kicking but also overshadowed by the other wines that were being drunk. Well made wine here and I encourage you to explore.
