Showing its age. Quite dark golden with flavors and aromas of citrus, caramel, minerality. Overall good but I think this needs more acidity to be great.

Showing its age now. Depending on your tastes, it's either past its prime or starting to show some mature characteristics. Color starting to turn slightly golden. I find it over the hill and lacking in excitement. Perhaps insufficient acid? In comparison, some better aged white Burgundies develop really interesting character as their color turns darker. A previous bottle of the same several months ago also seemed a bit dull.

Similar impression to what I felt at the winery. Nice understated citrus elements, this has gained some weight on the finish and a favorable waxy quality on the palate lends to a longer and unique finish. Absolutely not a California Chard by any means stylistically but I wouldn't call this for Burgundy either. This is a textbook example of how excellent Oregon Chardonnay can be - and age.

This wine has held up well. It doesn’t have quite the depth that I remember but paired very nicely with a chicken garlic pizza.

Needs to be the right temperature to express itself.
