We had this at the end of the meal since, well, it was cold. Very nice nose of pineapple, lemon, and a bit of oak, on the palate a bit of vanilla also came through. I would have liked to see a tad bit more acidity, but I am really just splitting hairs here. Outstanding. thedrunkencyclist.com

Clean and crisp, a really lovely Chardonnay. Citrus, apple, and minerals on the nose. On the palate, refreshing and bright, with a distinct lemony edge to the apple fruit, minerals, and a light touch of oak. Really beautifully constructed wine, with great restraint and impeccable balance. A-

Lush mouth feel with hints of butterscotch and full fruit. Balanced and not a woodchip!
