Really enjoy this Chardonnay, nice toasty aroma, full bodied without being overly oaky, nice minerality, silky texture, balanced. Great with our crab cakes. — 22 days ago

Lovely Chardonnay, in magnum, great balance, super texture, light handed with the oak and well integrated, perfect weight, could have gone for several more years. — a month ago

Among a stellar line up of Italian heavyweights, this wine really rose to the top. The texture was incredible, silky but still firm, classic aroma as and a long satisfying finish. What a joy! — a month ago

In perfect shape and at a very good place in its development, this wine was pure silk on the palate, a touch of green in the nose but otherwise outstanding with our Standing Rib Roast. — a month ago

Another gem from my daughter’s birth year case. Not sure they were thinking what this wine would be in 24 years, but I would tell them it held up amazingly well. The acidity was definitely in tact, plenty of sour cherry tartness, very earthy nose typical for the variety, my guess is it was blended with a little cab to give it some structure. How nice to see Napa Valley Sangiovese make such a journey. — a month ago

This wine really delivered. Straw color, softer mousse, toasty aroma and some citrus. Really great weight, full and pretty rich. Great with our oysters and caviar. — a month ago

Wow, in magnum, so luscious, felt totally decadent to enjoy this wine from large format. One of the best I have had. — a month ago
