Nothing surprising or unique here. But quality oak, butter, and cream for anyone looking for the New World style of Chardonnay. This wine delivers at a reasonable $40 price. — 20 days ago

Seems to be fully mature showing notes of red fruit, earth, spice. Not as complex as I wanted. Purchased from the Domaine after visiting in 07 — a month ago

This is quite a wine—fruit is so pure it gives the impression of ripe sweetness. Some green elements that should integrate with time. I think this will be truly remarkable with some more time in the cellar. — 2 days ago

Remarkably fresh for 11 year old SoCal pinot — especially at 14.5%.

I think it takes this long for the ABV to calm down and integrate somewhat.

Agreed. Have a few more up my sleeve — I’m now convinced they are ready to go.
