This is a clean, elegant and complex wine, brisk in acidity and dry in citrus and tropical fruit flavors. — (9/1/2012) —92

With zesty acidity, this is a bright, lively Chardonnay. It’s very rich, offering waves of orange, green apple, pear and tropical fruit flavors, made firm with minerals. Drink this flashy Chardonnay over the next three years.——S.H.(8/1/2011)—— 92

This is a very rich Chardonnay. It has complex, lush flavors of pineapples, lemons, limes, oranges and the smoky vanilla notes from 100% new oak. High acidity fortunately provides crisp balance. Almost too much of a good thing, it calls for equally rich fare, such as lobster or Ahi tuna tartare.——S.H.(9/1/2010)—— 92

This is Iron Horse’s first foray into native yeast winemaking, and the wine does have a yeasty, leesy quality, in addition to the usual dryness and minerality. In fact, this Chard is a little austere. Try giving it some years in the cellar.——S.H.(11/1/2007)—— 87
