Bright crisp green apple and oak influence. Round palate, crisp and acidic. Oak is noticeable. Unimpressed.

Deep yellow. Definite oak influence on the nose with woody notes, light butter and a creme brulee. Slight undertones of citrus and apples. Moderate acidity (6.5/10) and full bodied. Baked apples, some smoked wood, definitely complex and layered. Notes of citrus liven up the palate. Long and lingering finish. Drink till 2022. (91+)

Jan 11th, 2017Exotic aromatics and very textural. There's a piquancy to the way the wine feels on your tongue. The nose is almost floral. A bit softer in acid than some of the others

Creamy mouthfeel with a tropical and floral spectrum to the dominant flavors. Juicy-Fruit Gum in a Chardonnay ;)

Oct 13th, 2015Such a solid Chard for the number of cases made in Santa Cruz. Can't wait to visit and see how it's done :) very young, smell of oak / butter, fresh and sublime with 20/30 seconds of vibrant citrus and floral notes. Slight stone / graphite mineralogy. Easy drinking, need more

Ooh la la! Fantastic crisp apple-pear fruit laced with a streak of minerality and beautiful richness and length. Lovely now and sould last another 5+ years.
