Nice fruit scents and oak with a taste of some fruit and minerals just a hint of butter. A little light body and a short finish. But for the price this is a very drinkable Chardonnay. But I like the Oaky style.

Just above good. Nose is watery and weak. Introduction is a pleasant acidity that might be mistaken for an effervescence. Acid segues to light, in distinct peachy fruit then, finishes light butter and lingering mineral. Competent.

I'm only using this for cooking but will review it here anyway. I took one sip, it wasn't nice.

Tasted blind...baked apples, lemons, butterscotch, baking spices and vanilla. WIth 13.8% alcohol this was an unpleasant wine for me.

A decent California Chard. A bit tart and not a lot of oak. It's good for the price. How's that for a complement?

Flabby wine. Lemon and water dominate this effort. Forget doing the tasting process on this one.

An excellent Chard for the money. Floral nose with minerals on the palate. Somewhat dense mouthfeel that is reminiscent of an aged Chard. Very good with food.

drank this because mom bought it and had to have a chardonnay. it wasn't too bad. simple nose of pears and cream. creamy, butter with a bit of baked bread and pineapple. not to bad, just way too typical and not enough character.
