La Forest Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2005

Nice young yellow canary color. Heavy in the glass. Tropical nose with notes of sea breeze, lemon, kiwi, white stones and tan spice. Glycerol and rich in the mouth. California like, but with nice Chablis nuances. I wonder how this will evolve over next 10 years. Maybe like 92’s? — 2 years ago

Meursault Chardonnay 2006

Straw gold color, bright in the glass. Very Coche-y with a match stick nose and notes of citrus, apricot, petrol, wet stone and tan spice. Great fruit and sneaky acidity in the mouth. Some vanilla creme and tropical fruit comes on with air. Not bad for the hot 06 vintage, I wonder if the 92 white burgs tasted like this at age 16? — 2 years ago

Domaine Ramonet

Les Ruchottes Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay 2004

A late evening pop and pour. Light canary gold color. Notes of citrus and white stones, tan spice. Nice mouth feel with ample acidity to match the nice fruit-forward nature of this wine. This was tight and quiet, given the lack of air it had. Still, a high-quality wine and bottles in condition like this have 10+ years in front of it. 93+ — 2 years ago

Domaine François Raveneau

Blanchot Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2000

Taken to Canoe House at the Mauna Lani on the Big Island. Awesome aged Raveneau nose. Rich and heavy in the mouth. Notes of citrus, apricot, sea shells, white clay and tan spice. In the zone. Shared a glass with our server/somm. When the bill came, “we have a strict corkage policy but it’s waived when it’s Raveneau “. Ha! — 2 years ago

Dux Vineyard Chardonnay 2019

Very special wine from this very small vineyard outside Newburgh, Oregon. Near perfect harmony with fruit and acid. Nice balance. five years old now and with more years could be even better.  — 7 months ago

Domaine Roulot

Meursault - Charmes 1er Cru Chardonnay 2002

Light canary gold color. Inspiring nose. Notes of citrus, white clay, cardamom, tan spice and some white flowers. Young and fat in the mouth at first, flabby. But with 7-8 hours of air, this explodes with acidity to match the voluptuous fruit. Long finish. Taken to the new Chez Noir in Carmel (really good food - they will eventually get a star!). Sadly my last bottle of this, which easily had 10+ more years to go. Outstanding juice. — 2 years ago
