A disappointment from this esteemed vineyard, but consistent with Falcor's past record. The wine is thinly flavored and overly oaked, leaving an impression of woody, spicy citrus fruits. || The idea here was to make a white Burgundy-style Chardonnay with lots of oak. But the new oak is so strong that it overshadows what's actually a pretty nice wine underneath. You have to dive down through an ocean of smoky char, woody vanilla and sweet woodsap to find the basic peach and pineapple flavors.
