"DATE: 09-09-08 Appearance: Light straw.
Nose: Clean apple/pear aromas with some butter and a light mineral character.
Palate: Dry with good acidity, midweight plus. Good concentration of fruit as the palate follows the nose, enough fruit and extract to balance the relatively high alcohol properly. Both rich and silky on the midpalate, with light dusty tannins on the very long clean dry finish.
Conclusions: Big unoaked Chardonnay very much in the style of good Chablis, and ageworthy as are they. Could go eight to ten years. Best now with rich dishes, in five years will be a stand-alone interesting glass of wine." lfw
