Star bright pale yellow gold. Nose is quite aromatic and yields baked pear, and ripe white peach. Medium palate echoes the nose adding a slight dark floral note and with medium acidity from entry to the medium long finish. Beat unoaked Chardonnay I’ve had at this price. A complexity lacking in some wines costing twice as much. QPR through the roof. Enjoy with all standard vote wine fare. Drink now.

Medium acidity, straw yellow in color. Pear notes with a cream like taste on the tongue. Good complexity for a cheaper bottle of wine. Think I still like the oaked version better, but my wife is happy with the unoaked Chardonnay.

Cloud break fails to impress. Heavy on the nose and didn’t impress on the flavor.

Light honey-hued. Aromas and flavors of apple, cream, lemon, pear, and tangerine. Medium body and medium-plus acidity. Bright on the nose with creamy mouthfeel (via malolactic fermentation) and good length on the dry finish. Very easygoing and accessible. Bonus points for QPR.
