2009 vintage. Golden color. Heavy body (still!!). Unctuous with a corresponding amount of acidity to keep the proceedings in check for the next decade. This ain’t going nowhere. About as far from my “jam” as is possible but still other-worldly. 5.1.24. — 2 days ago

One word for this wine is concentration. Medium yellow. It radiates from the dark and fascinating profile of hazelnut and almond skin with enough acidity and oak integration to have none of the downside. I hate the expression but as manly of a chardonnay as it gets — a month ago

Roasted Hazelnuts, Touch oxidative, Night Jasmin, Green Tea. As good as any Grand Cru Burgh. I had some bottle variation because this did not come from my cellar. This bottle was awesome. — 6 days ago

This is one of my go to wines because it’s classic and goes well with many things. More in the oakier side and slightly heavy but I love the buttery flavor. — 2 days ago

Austin Hope is excellent every time. This went perfectly with the filet mignon for my 57th birthday at our favorite spot, Hannah’s steakhouse in Rancho Santa Margarita. With good friends, the Noce’s. — 2 months ago

Sipping Fine Wine

9.3

Pale lemon color with aromas of ripe fruits, citrus, toasty vanilla and baking spice scents. On the palate complex flavors of apple, peach & lemon citrus, well balanced with acidity on nice mouthfeel. Long finish ending with toasty mineral and spice notes, will continue to age well. A Great Chardonnay. Pair this with a Halibut drizzled with a Beurre Blanc sauce. — 20 days ago

Monday night pull. Idiot friend wanted wine with burgers. He said “it’s red meat”. Meh, rather have a coke. Good juice. Cork was soft. Enjoyable but maybe better sooner? I won’t know. — 4 days ago

A lovely wine. Raspberries, black cherries, and plums. I slightly prefer the 2016, but this is still an excellent wine. — 20 days ago
