In really good vintages, their White Bourgogne’s never disappoint. 2022 the rule, not the exception.

Earlier notes, still apply. Green apple, lime pulp/zest, Meyer lemon, tropical melons, heather-honey delight.

Alsace Riesling 2021

Pale yellow color. Aromas of stone fruit, white flowers and citrus. Very interesting flavor melange of pear, lemon, orange and pineapple. Slight stony note on the long lasting finish. Very crisp acidity and an interesting slightly creamy texture. Elegant, fresh, crunchy and lively! Very solid for its price point. — 9 months ago

Linda Vista Vineyard Chardonnay 2023

Not getting a ton on the nose. Maybe some slight lemon and white flowers.

Good fruit flavor but also overpowering acidity.

Lemons, citrus, slight stone fruit but not a ton.

Good. Feel like because there’s no to little malo, the natural acid stays top.

Trout Gulch Vineyard Chardonnay 2017

Lemon curd and a zesty acidity that lands with some sweetness and then bite.

Pairing with an avocado really mellowed this wine out and made it delicious.

Lots of tension and bright lemon citrus flavor. Touch of lime.

Mt. Veeder Chardonnay 2016

Green gold and lemon sour....not much nose but then the tart mid-palate and sharp acid finish roll in and bring the wine some serious gravitas. I love the “old world” aspect of this green apple/not-quite ripe pear tinged wine.No noticeable oak and a long, grippy finish. — 7 years ago

Cuvée Frédéric Emile Alsace Riesling

The nose on this baby is petrol all the way. Golden color adds to the excitement. The wine has electric acidity, lemon rind and honeyed apricots. A strong mineral core to this wine also lends structure. The finish is niceat 45 seconds. The only thing missing is a little more bottle age. This baby could have used a few more years to let the tertiary flavors develop. With the acidity in the bottle I would wait at least another decade if patient. Definitely a wine for next summit. @Ted Corvey @Kyle Harvey — 9 years ago

Muted at first (young, I know). But opened up after 30 minutes. I get a lemon driven nose and palate and mouth watering acidity. Very tight and seamless. Upside rating potential with more age.

Don’t they supposedly only use old barrels yet it often tastes oaky young?
