Bright gold. Shy nose of vanilla and baked quince. Echoed on the full-bodied palate with tropical fruits and a hint of… licorice? Not a lot of butter, but the medium acidity makes it a great foil for buttery foods. Lobster, crab cakes, roasted poultry, buttered rice, and the lot will be well served with this one. Drink now.

Almost feels smoky, probably the Oak barrel.

Unmistakable oak note from beginning to end. Smooth and balanced. Paired with a Costco SW chicken salad.

This is up my alley...apple, maybe some pineapple, and a nice vanilla butter aftertaste. Plus only$8.99 at total wine! I'll get again.

Nectarine on the nose, medium-bodied, and just the right amount of creamy oak

Bright yellow hue. Aromas and flavors of butter, coconut, cream, oak, pear, and vanilla. Full-bodied with medium acidity. Smooth and creamy on the palate with a slight finish of lemon zest. Classic California chardonnay. Incredible QPR.
