Morgeot Vigne Blanche Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Chardonnay 2012

My tasting notes begin with "Now we're talkin!", if that tells you anything. Butter cream brioche, baked pear, frangipan, popcorn oil, mini marshmallow, cheese rind, notes of white flowers. Tart citrus and crab apple on palate, good weight and breadth, yeasty doughy character — 11 years ago

Light straw colored with a creamy nose. Aromas of caramel popcorn, baked peaches, smoke and honey appear. Baked peaches persist through the palate with honey and raisin notes creating almost a sherry-like style. Sweet and delicious. Would love to try in another 4-6 years. — 11 years ago

Carneros Chardonnay 2014

Great Chardonnay for a cozy Sunday night where you are spending patio time and serving up some pasta with a roasted garlic tomato + pumpkin sauce. Buttery, yes, but not as if you are having buttered popcorn at the theaters. Toss that beautiful pasta with some fresh basil ribbons, Parmeggiano Reggiano, ciliegine and fresh ground pepper. Happy Sunday. — 10 years ago
