Vintage 2008 tasted Jan 2015. Tasted at end of its vibrant life. Still holding on - a tropical fruit bowl by this point with slight impression of sweetness. Still has glimpses of nice acidity, lemon/marmalade melding together. I would rate it higher if I liked tropical fruit Chardonnays.

What a surprising delight! Beautiful notes of caramel on the front end with floral notes on the back. Not your typical Chard!
