  Ripe and powerful, but bracing acidity makes this very drinkable. Showing some nice mature notes.

  I found this to be a very loud and very expressive Chardonnay. In your face tropical and citrus fruit with noticable yet integrated vanilla oak. Loud yet impressive, as the scores indicate. It held its own with a very loud game hens and morels in Madeira cream sauce dish. Outstanding.

  The nose was quite reduced and intense with notes of lemon, saline flavors, and tart white fruit. Nice acidity with notes of citrus, tart peach, and minerals on the palate. Good length and lovely complexity, this is really lovely!

  Light lemon color. Nose of pineapple and lemon curd, full bodied on the palate with good presence through the middle and a touch of astringency on the finish.

  Tasty for sure, but big and tropical. This has always been fairly big and tropical, but it's also quite intense and decently complex. At peak, perhaps slightly on the downslope.
