Aging just beautifully. Texture has picked up some weight. Signature reductive nose on the wine, but perhaps a touch less than the SVDs from Walter Scott. Great wine from a producer than just can’t seem to make a bad wine if they tried!

light gold color. matchstick on the opening, never completely blows off. sweet apples and a hint of lemon on the nose, also a bit of confected almond. light bodied with zippy, youthful acidity. the palate shows more rounded apple flavor with the beginnings of honey notes. strongly mineral on the back with a civic finish. maturing nicely and has the legs to go on for years.

Pale golden color. Nose was slightly reductive at first but opened up after about 30 mins or so of air. Showed mixed orchard fruits, a bit of lemon, crushed rock, a bit of match stick, flint and just a touch of wood coming through. Similar flavors on the palate with a perfect balance of fruit, oak and minerality. High acidity with a crisp mouthfeel but no sharp edges at all. Long finish. Fantastic chardonnay.
