Pale lemon with orchard and tropical fruit aromas and citrus floral notes adding a touch of baking spice. On the palate flavors of apple, pineapple and lemon citrus with floral and baking spice. Lively acidity, medium finish ending with fruit, citrus and baking spice.

Good, but for a Daou wine pretty unremarkable. Daou Vineyards tasting at NCWC 10/27/17.

We had the 2021 Vintage on 12/10-12/24. A nice CA Chardonnay. Tastes of lemon, apple, melon, oak, vanilla and butter. Well balanced. Full bodied. Good wine and good value

Medium gold in color; lemon zest, yellow apples, and starfruit on the nose; medium acidity; tastes like lemons, honeydew, and saline with a long finish. Nellie, Esmi, and I like it.

Yeah, I mean, it’s like what I want inexpensive Chardonnay to be.

I loved it, does NOT taste like eating an oak chip but has a touch of buttery, more crisp than buttery. Wife did not like it, any buttery and it’s a no for her 🤷🏼‍♂️. Would rate higher if all loved but still high bc Im overriding her objection to a point 😉
