Not buttery at all, not oaky, even somewhat sweet.

Light straw in color with a golden hue.
Fruity nose of pears, pineapples, vanilla, oak, melons, citrus, tropical fruits, yellow apples and light gooseberry.
Full bodied and bold, yet refreshing when chilled, with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry on the palate with vanilla, oak, grapefruits, citrus, apples, pears, cream, toast, almonds, melons and tropical fruits.
A Medium watery finish.
This is an above-average, yet simple, chardonnay from California. Big, with lots of alcohol, so beware...
Nicely balanced with ample secondary flavors of wood and vanilla. Nice and refreshing to drink by itself but needs to be very chilled.
14.2% alcohol by volume.

Lovely Chardonnay from Firestone Vineyards. Lots of bright tropical notes, vanilla and oak integrated well---full bodied to the point of being creamy but with enough acidity to pair well with an array of foods. Great value wine.

Way more citrus taste than I expected, hint of oak, and a bite of acid at the end.

Flavors of pineapple, papaya, citrus, pear and vanilla. This Chardonnay is full-bodied and well structured with just a hint of oak.
