Good for the price, a bit of the "chard-burn" but not so poignant that it's not worth buying. Will buy again!

Descent Oak, Pie, Sour Apple and Lemon flavor coming forth.. A little harsh and burn alcohol feeling. Overall a good entry at a decent price point.

Pale lemon in color with a golden tint. Fruity nose with citrus, lemons, light vanilla, toasted oak, peaches, apricots and light spices. Full bodied and refreshing with medium acidity. Dry on the palate with lemons, grapefruits, citrus, spices, vanilla, wood, minerals, cream and white pepper. Nice length on the finish with limes and bitter almonds. This California Chardonnay is nice and refreshing. Well-balanced and simple. Showing some oak notes, but not overwhelming at all. Enjoyable by itself or with food. A good sipping wine by the porch, or pool, if properly chilled. A little bitter on the ending, though. I paired it with an assortment of creamy cheeses. 13.5% alcohol by volume.
