Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
Mark Britton rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

Fantastic Chardonnay from a great Chardonnay region. Those seeking unoaked Chardonnay beware as this is not for you. But the oak is extremely well integrated with the fruit and high acidity. You will also pick-up Vanilla and Butter throughout. I would consider this cellarable for 2-3 years.
Vibrant and lively Chardonnay with aromas of floral, peach, ripe apple, sweet spice and oak. Dry with a wonderful balance between the fruit and oak. This shows how well suited Carneros is for growing this, the most renowned of white grape varieties. Medium-full bodied with a long, structured finish. Cellar it 2-4 years.
