Butterkissed California Chardonnay
An Oaky Chardonnay from California. Showing lemons, apples, oak, vanilla and spices.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity. Creamy and buttery.
Simple and unbalanced. Too oaky for me.
13.5% alcohol by volume.
83 points.

Round and flat. Comes across as smooth but then ends up being very boring.

Jan 26th, 2018I don’t normally drink Chardonnay unless it’s “unoaked” but the “butter kissed” grabbed my attention. I never could imagine a wine tasting buttery but it really does. The zesty lemon taste however overrides the butteriness.

Dec 29th, 2022Well balanced, nice apple and vanilla, can definitely taste the butterscotch and butter, but not overdone.
