This was an awesome bottle of New World Chardonnay. Orchard fruit, toast, vanilla in bouquet. Thick full bodied flavors of the same with good structure. Finish lingered for a minute. Look forward to drinking my last bottle in a few yrs but it’s in a great place now

My favorite of the RM chards - think it’s worth paying up vs. the Sonoma, etc.

A beautiful chard. Pears and apricots. Paired well with scallops. Crisp and clean.

Over a 3.5 hour period on May 29, my wife and I (along with three kids in tow) had the pleasure of sitting down with Will Segui of Rivers-Marie and winemaker of his personal label William & Mary at the Mending Wall facilities in St. Helena to taste through seven wines from bottle. Will also graciously provided tastings of his 2016 and 2017 William & Mary varietals from barrel.

Beautiful golden color in the glass; nose of honey, golden apples, and white flowers; bright and vibrant palate with lemon, apple, honey and subtle mint; oily texture, viscous; great acid kick on the back end; nowhere near the exotic, tropical fruit nature of the 2013, but still fruit-forward and characteristics of a quality Chardonnay

Certainly not a bad wine, but it just comes across as a bit fat and heavy. It lacks a nice refreshing acidity up front, and feels a bit oily on the finish.
