10 years on and still just getting started. Beautiful fruit, bright acidity, rich color with no signs of browning. 1.5L

On last day of working there I got this 2008 Chateau Montelena magnum of Chardonnay signed by all of my friends there. It's fantastic, and I called Anne Banfield as instructed! #montelena #napa

Showing its age but with some very nice butterscotch overtones. Juicy still. Improves with air.

My favorite of the vertical.. Nice balance of secondary and fruity notes.. For me- this is in the sweet spot

We opened this to compare with a 2008 Meursault, and it held it's own no problem! Beautifully lean, with vibrant acidity and purity of fruit.

A true classic, the Cary Grant of Chardonnays. Nuff said!
