From mag. Very pretty. White flowers and a softened marzipan citrus. Very detailed structure. Not obvious minerality but detail and filigreed Montrachet-like palate. Great

Nov 25th, 20162009 Peter Michael Belle Cote Chardonnay. Dinner at Tap during staycation. Brought this out as a backup, thinking the '07 Kistler was probably dead- and it was. This wine, thankfully, was great. Well-balanced, not too much oak, honey, apricot, butter, brioche. Gentle finish. We really enjoyed this wine, perhaps more so than otherwise, due to its comp against the corked Kistler.
