Mount Eden Vineyards Estate Bottled Santa Cruz Mountains Chardonnay 2012

Conrad Green

Zesty and bright. Sharp lemon and zippy middle. Big and brassy and fun

Quite a debate about is this skunky, and if it is, how do you define it. To me, it was definitely a bit sulphuric with some burnt popcorn. Fruit is fairly subdued throughout...more grilled buttered pineapple and cashew. Out of the two, this definitely appeals to the French crowd. Thanks for the intro to this @Benjamin Keator !

In a class of its own. Good winter sipping.

Dry nicely balanced Chardonnay. Integrated oak and subtle fruit up front. Persistent finish and good acidity along the way.

Robbie Ward

Quite restrained but with plenty of power. Oak supports rather than dominates. Beautiful

Matt K

Just rich enough, tight, pithy, grippy. Good for another 15 years, methinks.

Unreleased MEV Chard. Delicious. Slate, store fruit and the most incredible acidity that carries for 45+ seconds.

Brian Kostreba

I tried it slightly chilled was excellent, then fully chilled it lost some of the flavors I tasted before. A great wine that I held for several years before serving.

Daniil Karp

Neon yellow in color with bright flavors and high acidity. Topical fruit and pineapple flavors with a grassy green finish.

Mike Evans

Nice body but with good cut, pear, lemon, minerals, good depth with a tart finish.
