Cool story behind this. Lost his Chablis crop to frost, but was determined to make some wine. Sourced Limoux Chard from friends and viola. Lemon grass and bright acidity. — 8 years ago

13’ Thomas Fogarty Damiana Vineyard Chardonnay.

TASTING NOTES ( From the Winery)
Always our most opulent Chardonnay, Damiana has vivid fruit and buttressed by intense natural acidity. Power and grace. 

Orange zest, lemon/lime, hard butterscotch candy, soft creaminess to it. A splash of acid. Needs a 30/ 45 minute decanting. It’s still felt slightly short of what it will be!!

There’s no doubt this will taste better in a year. This is the current release. Will age nicely for another 8/10 years. — 8 years ago

Drinking the 2017 in 2021. Nose is rich with blackberry and blueberry. Lighter on the palate, with hints s of blackberry, strawberry and ripe fruit. Light and smooth with very low tannins. Oaks and a light earthy finish. Very nice wine. Wish I had a few bottles to set aside for about five years. — 4 years ago

Jasmine, quince paste, spiced pear, lemon curd, pineapple sweetness, punchy. Touch of lemon pith at end, but tons of juicy acid. Creamy / lactic. Chalky minerals. Layered, delicious, weighty.
