I don't often drink white wine but it was given to me as a gift. This Chardonnay is actually one of the best I have had. Great taste!

Lemon, peach, and butterscotch mark the nose. Tropical fruits give way to a buttery palate, with a hint of oak. Medium bodied, with a moderate finish. A nice value California Chardonnay, with an interesting, though gimmicky bottle.

3/22/8/4/3 + 50 = 90 pts

Light oak. Nice citrus and fruit balance. Light on the palate yet maintains its character as Chardonnay.
