Dan Goldfield always said he preferred to drink his Rued Vineyard Chardonnay after 5 years and now I can see why. Everything is balanced and in place. Flowers, lemon peel and touch of vanilla.

Like. Love. So floral and great aromatics, but with creaminess and toastiness, and nice pear/tropical fruits. I could drink lots of this (I just did)

The cork was soaked through pretty good which might have assisted in oxidizing this bottle sooner rather than later. I'd give it another go to see it that is a trend or if this bottle was just off.
