Yes, I am reviewing this at 10 years old - and I’m impressed with its preservation, I just think the beginning point was a little on thin side (sugar development). Definitely a nice effort at a difficult varietal to mature on the east coast. Raspberry and mulberry notes lead - not a bad effort! — a year ago

It’s a very rich style chardonnay, but it’s unapologetically delicious. Professional scores have it as high as 97 and the purity of fruit along with the deft use of french oak and balanced acidity are certainly deserving. It strikes a nice balance even with everything amped up and an alcohol level of 14.6%. Only 326 cases made, if you see a bottle in the wild drink it! — 6 years ago

At 24 years of age this is youthful and vital with a rich ridge of stone fruit braced by range citrus acid and a lingering, slightly mineral finish. Delightful. — 3 years ago

Green pepper, graphite and tobacco on the nose. Spice, raspberry, pencil shavings and leather on the palate. A little on the high end of alcohol, but it burned off a bit on the second day. — 5 years ago

Light bodied Zin. Dark Cherry and dried herbs on the nose. Cherry and a hint of black pepper and baking spice on the finish. Silky texture. Not your typical Zinfandel. More like a CDP. — 6 years ago
