The 2010 Vine Hill Chardonnay is golden yellow in color it has a restrained aroma of green pears some citrus small hint of vanilla but overall the aromatics are fairly tight still even with the wine's age. This is probably a tribute to the wines good storage. The acid is a bit softer and more integrated into the wine with the 2010. It is more ready than the 2009 or 2008 on the palate. The finish is of ripe pears ripe lemons, lemon pie and a hint of vanilla and wood shows a bit in the end. Great length.

Mersault-like in age, albeit a bit richer. Steely stonefruit and citrus notes, developing a nice light butterscotch and melon note at 8 years of age. Plenty of toasty oak and spice... but not overpowering. Perfect with risotto.
