Tasting notes
The 2015 Chardonnay Eastside Vineyard is superb. Still fresh and vibrant, the 2015 has reached its tenth birthday in style. I would have never guessed its age blind. Lemon peel, white flowers, crushed rocks and white pepper confer freshness. The 2015 was spectacular on release, as it is today.

Great aromas of stone, gun powder and sliced apple. Wow. Full body, dense and layered. Wonderful phenolic texture. Montrachet-like.
The 2015 Chardonnay Eastside Vineyard exudes butterscotch, allspice, baked pears and peach preserves with tantalizing honeycomb, salted caramel and popcorn hints. This rich, full-bodied powerhouse fills the palate with decadent, spicy stone fruit, marked by a refreshing line of acid and finishing with lingering wet pebble and savory hints.
