I found it more rounded than I prefer in my Chablis, without the Apple/acid snap on the finish. Still, well constructed.

Very pale green color with wet clay, bruised apple, chalk and lime aromas. On the palate it's very fresh with an appealing minerality, and green apple, lime and a hint of white peach peeking through. Wonderful QPR at <$20! #enofylzwineblog #Chablis

Pale yellow with a light French Chardonnay nose. Thought a tinge of oak but label says SS. In the mouth found red apple & ripe pear, maybe some melon- medium body. A touch of sweetness with mild acidity and also a light touch of creaminess. A nice white-
