Aromas of tropical fruits, citrus & sweet spice. On the palate ripe fruits, apple, peach with lemon citrus and creamy vanilla toasty oak. French oak aging, ok balance, medium ending with toasty notes and buttery oak finish.

This is a simple Chardonnay from California.

Showing oak, vanilla, lemons, citrus, spices and white pepper.

A little over the hill, but still drinkable. Good for parties and good by itself.

Full bodied with medium minus acidity.

Unbalanced but drinkable.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

84 points.

A little too tart and alcohol forward for me. But it wasn't too bad for the price may buy again?

Really liked this buttery Chardonnay, especially for the price. Reminds me of the more expensive version I had at the winery many years ago. Picked up a couple more bottles.
