Fruity in the beginning and earthy in the end. Facet rich after taste — 5 years ago
Pale lemon in color with a yellow tint.
Strong nose of citrus, vanilla, oak, butter, spices, melons, red apples and lemons.
Full bodied, bold and buttery, with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry on the palate with lemons, grapefruits, apples, pears, almonds, pineapples, oak, vanilla, spices, sea salt, minerals and white pepper.
Long finish with tangy limes.
This is a great Chardonnay from Carneros, California. Buttery and bold and not too oaky, even for my taste.
Very smooth and enjoyable by itself or with food. Rich and extracted.

Color - dark purple garnet. A bold expressive funky perfume fruit nose so classic of Cayuse with mineral-meat, smokey and mint notes lingering with a vanilla toast scent. Juicy and elegant; rich with dark plum-cherry flavors intertwined with a smokey soil bacon bitters taste—the mineral-iron characteristics follow with a tobacco long finish. Looking forward to seeing how the flavors change with different foods and as the wine opens up. Bionic Frog is favorite and definitely a wine to try and store in your cellar. Christophe Baron does it again! — 4 years ago
A treat to taste a wine this old. Silky smooth body with flavors dominated by dedicated fruit - primarily fig. — 6 years ago
Color of bubbly egg white. Nose of honey , a bit gasoline, pineapple, and actually a bit nutty and oaky note. Taste is sweet honey, some zesty peel, Sprite, citrus, lemonade like flavor, light yet refreshing. Aftertaste is a bit short, but definitely a crowd pleaser. — 7 years ago

Truly an elegant expression from aged Napa wine. The notes of cedar and cigar box coupled with some mushroom and earth tones dominate. On the taste, the rich mouthfeels steel shows some fruit notes with deep blueberry and plum notes. I REALLY LIKE THIS WINE! And am glad to still have this in my cellar... — 5 years ago
