La Marisma Vineyard Chardonnay
Really really beautiful wine. A touch of matchstick reduction, buttery lemon curd, creme brûlée, brine, pear, key lime. Intensity and laser accuracy where rich texture and penetrating acid combine. Really long finish. Definitely a Cali chard built for a burg boy. Enjoyed with a quarantine quiche w/sausage, spinach and Parmesan.

Mar 20th, 2020Creme brûlée, pears, ... but not fat or buttery... just the opposite. Laser beams of crepe brûlée and pears which is awesome!

Mar 8th, 2020I’m not sure what I was expecting, but this want it. And I mean that in a good way. I decanted it for 3 hours before finally began to unfurl itself. Briney minerality, pineapple, bruised pear. Piercing acidity. Very interesting and I’m curious to see how this will change over the years. Texturally very interesting.

Jan 5th, 2016On taking this wine for a second spin I'm convince she has diamonds on the soles of her shoes and she's tappin out puttin on the Ritz! Anyone who doubts American chard should get the chance to smell this wine followed by an immediate slap in the face from Homie the Clown's sock
