Great CA Chardonnay. Balanced, not overly oaked, not really buttery. Fresh and delicious lemon, yellow apple, underripe pear. It doesn’t have the electric acidity of the Adank Swiss Chardonnay I just tried, but it’s delicious in its own softer, more subtle way. Speaking of Swiss, I’m using a cup for tonight’s cheese fondue on a snowy night. — a year ago

This blew my (and hubs) doors off. Light and deft touch with an underlying smoky/sultry thing going on. As Lyle would say- nose is off the charts. Approachable but also makes me stop and ponder- a lot going on to love — 2 years ago

Floral, roses, 100% whole bunch, red apple, sweet red cherries but darker, sensational aromas, more, spices, baking spices, some rare underarm. wood shavings, so high toned and intense and such fine, silky tannins and all red fruits and barely sweet. what complexity, and unreal red fruits, energy and tannins, so so good. big structure and density. Long and such an echoing finish. Just an iconic wine. Just a crazy good wine. Earthy sweetness and sweetening up but it’s so not sweet just so on the edge. It’s amazing how talented Patrick is. — 2 years ago

Heavenly, elegant nose, gooseberry, sage, so elegant and ethereal and like a pillow, just so expansive and like a cloud. 9.6 nose. Jeez. So elegant, round and juicy, super clean, palate is all mineral, so nimble and mineral and it’s delicate. Some nice herbals. Long and lingering finish. unreal flavor intensity. Unreal aromatic complexity. So so dank and light. Unreal sapidity. Palate staining. 60% old wood barrel fermented. — 2 years ago

Whoa!

Elegantly rich on the nose.

Palate is rich. Hints of pineapple. Potent balancing acidity. Amazing.
