Very lively and fresh – unusually so for a Napa Valley Chardonnay of this age. Not that complex but certainly in good shape at nine years old. (JR)

(10% new oak; no malo) Captivating aromas of apple, pear, fresh herbs, dried spices and flowers. Quite dry and fresh-in fact, almost austere-with a lightly mineral, steely character to the flavors of apple, pear, citrus peel and dried herbs. Boasts very good density of texture and flavor intensity. Hold this for at least a few years before pulling the cork.
