If you like the big fat California chards then you may like this. If you want more restraint, and a less “hot” white (14.3% ABV?), then you might want to look elsewhere. This one has a super rich mouthfeel and is super buttery. It could be right for some dishes, but be prepared.

Very nice crisp apple and citrus. Very little oak or malo. Very nice and great QPR at $20.

A nice wine that has green apple and a hint of vanilla on the nose. A slight hint of oak on the finish
