This Columbia Valley bottling catches your eye with the seamless texture and great sense of freshness. Meyer lemon and pineapple upside down cake mingle with minerals, smoke, and shades of butterscotch on the palate. This is just sinfully good stuff even at the two year mark, as the 2019 ‘Big Sissy’ Chardonnay has some great cellaring potential. Drink 2021-2029- 93

My guys call me the Big Sissy ;). I'm ok with that if I'm as good as this wine.

Apple, pear, lightly oaked with hint of vanilla. Always stellar.
