Thank goodness. No pre-ox on this wine. Have been burned by a lot of Williams selyem chards

But this wine had the dark golden hue yet no pre ox. Very fresh and gorgeous

Like the best WS chards - this tastes nothing like typical California Chardonnay and is more like a chateaunuef de pape Blanc

Fantastic melon and stone fruit flavors.

Minimal oak and a good acidity that gives you a bit of heat / alcohol but not too much.

Really enjoyed this wine with salmon and caviar. — 6 days ago

Just a perfect wine. Opened at the right time, served with the proper meal, and just so grateful for those moments when the stars align and you open a wine you know is good at the perfect time. Angela is just crushing it. — a month ago

Diora Pinot Noir from Monterey. Rich depth of black fruit nuances from Santa Lucia Highlands. Decanted to let it open up. Very enjoyable. — 2 months ago

2021 vintage. No 2020 made for obvious reasons and only 90 cases of the 2019 vintage made so realistically not in the marketplace. 2018 (9.6) yielded a whopping 152 cases. 2021 was slightly more prolific but not exactly easy to run into. Same eternal, quiescent pace and style as the 2018. The rare Napa Cab effort inviting conversation versus attempts to dominate/control/stifle it. You can keep all your assorted vintages and producers of Beckstoffer This and Thats. I'll take this, any vintage, over any interpretations/producers of that, any time. And, frankly, once you taste it, you likely will too. @me with your impressions. 01.29.25. — 2 days ago

Did not match up to the Kapcsandy. Nice but not as rich and plush as I remember. — a month ago

Pretty great. I feel like it could use more time in bottle. A couple hours of air and it was cherries, dust, strawberries, white pepper, a hint of jalapeño, maybe red apple with baking spice. So lovely. — 3 months ago
