- Wonderful, with a beautiful golden yellow color and intense bouquet. It is rich with pear, vanilla, and hazelnut, but still balanced. It has a spicy undertone that I really love. It is great now and will cellar for a number of years. (Richard's Picks, 12/99). Simply put, this Chardonnay is everything it's supposed to be. Rich, sophisticated layers of clean pear, citrus, hazelnut, vanilla, oak, and spice combine with perfect acidity and a lingering finish. Hard to beat at any price. Fabulous now and should improve with age for the next three years.

- Spicy, fruity aroma and a complex palate of ripe apples and toasty oak.
