Mar 29th, 20232020 vintage has a bit of a bite and not as smooth as previous tasting. Bottle states notes of coconut, brioche and pineapple, but it tastes more like citrus to me.

Apr 28th, 2022This hit the spot: light gold / straw color sporting generous nose of toasty oak: vanillin & dill accented. Matchsticks, creamy lemon curd, orange oil - rich, saturated nose, elegant and downright delightful. Burgundian. Decent weight on palate w/orchard fruit & butterscotch tho lighter in weight than nose implies - but so tasty, well balanced w/out getting cloying over-oaked or over-malo’d. Cali Chard hitting all the right notes & stoked I scored on close out for $15.

Dec 4th, 20212019 vintage enjoyed this wine’s creaminess and vanilla notes. Not real oaky, which I like, but smooth finish. A little pricey, but worth it!
