Really nice for the price, around $12-14. Apple, peach skin, hint of spice, gravely minerality and lively acidity.

A bit austere. Opening up nice after a bit. Dramatic acidity.

Falls flat. Hot. More alcohol taste than fruit. Not a fan. Taste like cheap excuse for a Chardonnay.

Clean pure Chardonnay flavors of underripe pear and peach, with lemon oil and a chalky minerality. This is exactly what I want in an affordable Maconnais.

Tart lemon with faint notes of cotton candy on the nose. Citrus salad and melon on the palate, with notes of lemon candy and orange pith on the finish. Crisp and dry but nicely balanced. Probably best for salads with vinaigrette, berry salads, and light seafood dishes.

It was definitely on the sweeter side, however it paired really well with my pasta that had sausage and shrimp in it. Had a bit of a floral and tartness profile to it.
