The 2023 Chardonnay soars from the glass with striking aromatics. Hints of apricot, lemon peel, white flowers and crushed rocks follow. Effortless and gracious, this blend of sites yields a Chardonnay of notable complexity, while a touch of Hungarian oak adds an attractive spicy character. $22.00 (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, August 2024)

Medium lemon with aromas of stone and citrus fruits with floral and flinty notes. On the palate flavors of apple and lemon citrus, smooth with a crisp texture, lively acidity. Medium+ finish ending with citrus fruit and savory mineral character.

Lots of apple blossom and well balanced toasty creaminess. Nothing complex but very enjoyable. More middle of the road style in terms of richness. Not bad for $15.

Very little oak on the nose and palate, which is just what I like with my chardonnays. Nice golden color with notes of green apple, pineapple and plantains on the nose as well as a yeasty lees characteristic on the palate. Ever drinkable with a roundness to it.

Have you been looking for a sub $15 Chard that satisfies all your needs? If so, then this is your wine. Nice buttery wine that would go well with a Brie or Camembert. Apples and melons with just the right amount of acid. Must buy.

Banana peel, clove, stewed apple, buttery crust and baking spice. Palate shows more apple and banana pie. Good luck pairing this with dinner - dessert all the way.

Straw colored in the glass. Butter and Apple on the nose. Medium body on the palette. Highly acidic on the finish. Nice long finish as well. Not a heavy Chard which is the way I like it.
