Meursault Chardonnay 2006

Last bottle of the trip, taken to Napua at the Mauna Lani. Canary gold color, bright and cheery in the glass. Notes of citrus and kiwi, tropical fruit, wet stones, tan spice, vanilla and white acacia flowers. Rich and glycerol in the mouth, matched with serious acidity. Paired perfectly with a nice Onaga fresh catch, which turned out to be the best prepared fish dish of the trip. Young but drinking well. Aloha! — 2 years ago

Les Clos Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2001

Medium gold. Heavy in the glass. Gorgeous nose. Notes of sea breeze, sea shells, wet stones, white acacia flowers and some honey. Massive fruit and acidity in the mouth. Great texture and mouth feel. Everything you could ask for in a Chablis… ready to drink now but easily has 10+ years in front of it. Loved this! — 3 years ago

Thornton Vineyard Pinot Noir 2015

This Sonoma Pinot Noir is drinking perfectly after almost 10 years with bold aromas & flavors of blackberries, plums, along notes of graphite and forest floor.  The palate is nearly perfectly balanced with well integrated tannins and punchy acidity through a long finish. A wonderful pairing with reverse seared Filet mignon and fried garlic green beans! [8/16/24] ($33) — 3 months ago

Meursault Chardonnay 2018

Pronounced nose of Meyer lemon, acacia, quince, hint of white peach and vanilla. Wonderful acidity that offsets the generally fruity notes. Missing a little salinity on the palate that is very primary and leads with lemon and peach. Awesome juice. — 2 years ago

Domaine Leflaive

Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru Chardonnay 1999

Light gold with a petrol and stone dominated nose... Bright fruit, with citrus, pear and kiwi notes. Floral with white acacia notes too. Incredible power and impact in the mouth. Long finish. Still very youthful. I guessed Coche. A rock star wine just starting out on its tour! — 3 years ago

La Boudriotte Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay 2019

9.5

Sharp, concentrated, taut. Reduced slightly in the beginning but unfurls slowly with notes of Meyer lemon, chalk, unripe pineapple, acacia, orange blossom and a hint of smoke. Fantastic effort, promises slightly more rounded notes as the oak integrates with time. — a year ago

Winery Lake Vineyard Estate Grown Pinot Noir 2014

So this bottle is much better than previous. Still very hot and fruit forward domination but it actually tastes of Pinot. Cherries, baking spices, vanilla. It’s fine. — 4 years ago
