Probably held it longer than we should, but still really good.

Unbalanced. Fruit forward, then a sharp left turn into an overly oaked detour. Maybe I haven't had Chardonnay in a long while, but this was not enjoyable.

I enjoyed this wine. Not as much butter as I was expecting; more fruit forward.
