Opens like a Savennières, three hours later it’s creamier and rounder like a lemon Meringue pie. Ripe apricot, honey, beeswax, chive, acacia, lemon, cream Fraiche, lemon pie, stony minerality, richly textured on the palate with the right amount of phenolics and an ultra long and pleasing finish. Such a lovely wine!! Elevated acidity. Medium gold in color. — 5 days ago

Wine has a beautiful medium dark ruby red gaining some brick hue on the border. Has always been taut and muscular and somewhat variable. This bottle oozed with great fruit, spices and flowers, and was truly excellent. Tanins are pronounced but there is enough fruit here to outlast them. Was a great bottle and we thoroughly enjoyed it. — 16 days ago

Mostly scarlet in color, translucent and regal. Deep nose. Notes of black cherry, blueberries, dried cranberries, some cool slate stone and some pepper. Rich and long in the mouth. Tannins fully resolved and integrated. Really nice for the vintage. In a great drinking window. — 6 days ago

Nose has oak-ey pineapple purée, orange peel, oxidized green apple, dried white florals, orange blossom, wet river rocks and dry sandstone (go figure!).

Palate has warmed lemon slice, lemon zest, orange zest, very mineral-ey water, day old buttered popcorn, lemon pith, toasted barrel and warmed sandstone. Very nice, long finish, wanting another sip...

Decanted 3H, more time, and years appreciated. Future bottles should be 2025+.

Inaugural bottle from an OWC 6-pack my lovely wife surprised me with about a month ago, guess she really knows what I love, aside from her and the fur-kids, it's Chardonnay! — 14 days ago

2018 vintage
Deep and complex with the grown up amount of berry. Not candy sweet. A tick up from a daily wine — 2 days ago

Nice Burgundy style Bojo, nice red fruit, good acidity, supple tannins yet the wine has balance and some depth, but I think you need to drink up, won’t last that long. 88-89

Beau Bojo de style Bourguignon, fruits rouges, belle acidité, tannins assez souples, un beau vin équilibré. Par contre, je pense qu’il faut boire assez rapidement si on veut apprécier sur le fruit. — 22 days ago

Mike & Rhonda came up to visit us this past Saturday. Came to support my son on his final swim before heading off to college. He just happened to break the pool record in 50 Breaststroke . They purchased this beauty for dinner. We LOVE you both! -at EddieV’s Tyson’s Corner. @Mike R — 8 days ago

9.1

Uniquely bright, pungent, refined. A bit austere now; citrusy, very tart, even a bit astringent, not super giving. Very elegant and fascinating, though I expected another level of concentration. Afraid it doesn’t quite add up to justify the price tag! — a day ago

Hard pressed to find something as good from CA…this just hit all the right notes. Not overly acidic and beautiful, creamy finish. — 17 days ago
