07’ Seven Stone. Still quite purple in color. Blackberry, blueberry & jam flavors, dark chocolate, tea. This wine is still rather rich & dense. Have to say it has a elegance about it. This could possibly be in it’s prime for another decade. We shall see.
Nothing quite like it. Reminds me of a combination of Lail Mole Hill & Robert Keenan Reserve 😳 — 8 years ago
Light golden in color.
Strong nose of citrus, apples, lemons, light earth, pears, light oak and spices.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with red apples, lemons, limes, light wood, spices, light nuts and sea salt.
Tangy finish with lemons and light earth notes.
This 5 year old Chardonnay from Spring Mountain District in Napa Valley is still drinking very fresh, which I loved. Rich and smooth, nicely balanced and elegant, with a generous mouthfeel.
I had this vintage 2 years ago and it is drinking better now. Complex, fruit forward and interesting, with a light buttery mouthfeel.
Good right out of the bottle, easy drinking, and good by itself as a sipping wine.
100% Chardonnay grapes were handpicked and aged for 7 months, on the lees, in French and American oak barrels.

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a few hours. The 2017 Mailbox Vineyard pours a deep purple/garnet color with an opaque core; medium viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of dark cherry, purple flowers, cocoa, pipe tobacco, a mix of organic and inorganic earth and warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. Keenan does Merlot really well and this is a prime example.
