Lemon curd, vanilla, honeysuckle, tropical fruits, full flavored and textured. Borderline slutty, really delicious domestic Chardonnay..

Surprisingly advanced both in color and flavor. Rich lemon curd on the palate, with some nuttiness on the finish. Perhaps a wonky bottle, but I say drink up...

12' This is in collaboration with Varner brothers. The balance of this between fruit & oak is impressive. I recommend highly to decanting it. One hour later it came together nicely. Floral, white peaches, nice acidity. Best years are in front of it. You could cellar this for another 5+ year without a problem. Like to revisit this again in a few years.

Nice rich flavor profile, but showing a little more oak than I now prefer. Drink up...
