De Loach Vineyards
Central Coast Chardonnay
The nose of this straw-colored wine shows citrus and stone fruit, along with a heap of of oak spice. The oak displays itself even more prominently on the palate, where the lemon, tangerine, nectarine and apricot flavors also shine. The minerality is what I like about white wines from the Edna Valley - chalky limestone is just the best. Acidity here is decent, but not overpowering. You could do worse for $10, that's for sure.

Feb 23rd, 2023A nice Chardonnay which is still on the young side but certainly drinkable. The nose has light apple aromas, while the palette has young crisp green apple. If you can find it for less than 20 dollars it is a great buy.

Sep 5th, 2017Nice, round, California Central Coast Chard. Not oaky or minerally like a white burg; instead pleasant, fruity and slightly buttery, balanced by sufficient acid. 2014 vintage. Enjoyed with barbecued shrimp.
