Big CA style Chardonnay, not my preferred style, but well done for the form.

Lovely gold color. Massive stone fruits on the nose with some apples, butter, and brioche. Absolutely massive wine. What was on the nose is amplified. Deep and chewy with an insanely long finish. This wine rocks and requires a crowd to drink.

Apricots, mangoes, tangerines, and papaya. Crisp and refreshing.

Solid Chardonnay that’s more oaky than fruity, my preference. A great start to a meal on the grill.

Nice chard, but a bit over-oaked, IMO.

Fantastic Chardonnay from PH! Love the acid and fullness of this wine without too much oak.

Paired nicely with Cornish Game Hen. Clean, crisp style, not buttery/oakey Cheers.
