An icon, and a superb accompaniment to Shrimp Creole. Chablis-like in style with Meyer lemon, tangerine oil, rocks, and a racy spine of acidity. #chrispine

Ok, so I thought the '11 was my favorite, but the '13 just knocked it off. Damn! The pure beauty of Chardonnay.

Easy to see why these guys were chosen to be judged alongside French burgundy benchmarks.

Tasting notes from a Judgement of Paris anniversary event at Cadillac Wines tonight...
Tart, green apple, and great acidity. Very little butter, which was a refreshing take on a chard. Same recipe has been used to make this wine since the beginning. Great history.

I think I had huge expectations of this wine going in and was left disappointed. In no way is this a bad wine, I think I just put it up there on a pedestal given the winery and thought I would be blown away. There was nothing overly stunning or unique, but definitely a solid Chardonnay. We probably should have aged it longer, so that may have been on us.

Jul 15th, 2018Good, but not as oaky as expected. Not the best year for my pallet.
