Kongsgaard
The Judge Napa Valley Chardonnay
Verve, weight and opulence. This just had an astounding amount of lift. Ocean air and quince aromatics, flavors of marcana almond, toast, lemon curd and baked apple. Long lingering finish. There's a lot going on here and all of it is good.

Jul 24th, 2016Well, compared to the 2010 this is just worlds above. Everything i wished the last one was, this is.

Sep 28th, 2015Certainly big, but not without a sense of grace.

Feb 27th, 2015Just about our most favorite wine on the planet. Needs a healthy decant to show everything she’s got. After 4 hours the complexity and integration hits its stride. Tropical fruit (mostly pineapple) with zero tartness. 60 second finish. Much better balance than the 2012 regular Kongsgaard which is still too tight.

Oct 1st, 2017This wine was the chardonnay of the night for me. Huge wine. Tongue coating. Finish lasts a couple minutes really great stuff. Thanks for bringing this @Bill Bender

Jul 24th, 2016very well balanced and incredible texture, the finish is long and oak very present but balanced with the bright acid and fruit. One of my favorite Napa chardonnays
