Apple, lemon candy, butterscotch, vanilla, buttery oak and slate. Good acidity and average structure.

Meyer lemon bomb. Thick, waxy, creamy and a touch austere this young.

We had the 2015 Vintage on 11/26-27/20. This is a full bodied, well balanced Chardonnay with tastes of lemon, vanilla and mild oak. A real good Chardonnay

We had the 2015 Vintage on 5/16-17/20. A flintiness, oak, vanilla and lemongrass. Well balanced, full bodied. Just terrific.

We had the 2015 Vintage On 7/7-8/19. A terrible Chardonnay that is full bodied with smooth finish. There tastes of tropical fruit, apricot and oak. There is a minerality that is characteristic of a Mersault.

Really good Chardonnay. We had this on 11/9-10/18. Tastes of tropical fruit, lemon, vanilla and oak. A smooth finish with just a little acidic bite.
