Prelude Vineyards Chardonnay 2019

Unscrew and pour yesterday. Noted from 24 hrs open. Fantastic PQR. Lovely meyer lemon and soft mango notes, some oak-influenced vanilla, but very stylish. On the palate: lovely acidity, soft slate, good density and a juicy finish. At the garagiste price of about 27 bucks, this is leaning in the case buy direction. Yum. — 4 years ago

Bloomsbury Brut Sparkling Chardonnay Blend

First dance with British bubbles, not Champagne but pretty damn close. Very good structure and acid. Over priced when you compare it to NV Champs. But The region is now on my radar and I am looking forward to things to come. — 8 years ago

Woah. Wonderful dark mountain fruit - with tannins that'll rip your face off. The fruit is shining through already, but you'll certainly need to lay this one down for a couple/few years. Enjoyable, but I never should've opened (ok, Coravined) this so soon — 10 years ago

But I've never let the remainder of bottle remain unopened for more than 30 days or so. Works great for that period. But I've never sampled a young wine with Coravin and then laid it down for another year before trying again. I may test that soon though. I know others that have for 6 months and claimed great success

9.1

Brilliant silver-straw. Lime zest, honeysuckle, succulent herbs and chalky minerals on the incisive nose. Dry, tightly focused and lithe on the palate, offering intense citrus and orchard fruit flavors that reveal a hint of waxiness and a refreshingly bitter quinine note. Shows a delicate touch and finishes clean, nervy and quite long, with resonating mineral character and a hint of lemon thyme. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, July 2021)

This is just ridiculous. Act 7. Tastes of deep figs/plums up front as if grandma just baked a pie in your mouth. Finished smooth with a tiny bit of spice and more jams that make you want to cry. More of this please. — 6 years ago
