Great for an everyday wine when it is hot. Smells of green apple and honey, but relaxes quick with a non oaky buttery finish. — 9 years ago

Surprise favorite of a Chenin blanc tasting, haven't had a current vintage Chalone wine in years, not since working for Acacia when it was still owned by Chalone. This wine had killer acid, varietal character, just enough richness. Can imagine this wine is a favorite of the production team at the winery--often these tiny production side wines are the most individual and exciting, less pressure and expectations. (I need to try the other Chalone wines and see what they are doing these days.) — 7 years ago
Intense smoke and wet stone yields to a ripe white peach and pear with white pepper and glycerine. Considerable oak treatment offers a supple and silky spiced vanilla finish. Remarkable acidity remains and juxtaposes a creamy viscosity. — 9 years ago
