Good traditional chardonnay. This is fermented in French oak, but isn't too heavy and no thick buttery taste.

Sister wine to the Claret, but much harder to find. Good, easy drinking un-oaked Chardonnay. Smooth, with nice citrusy fruits. Good everyday wine.

Very clean but fewer flavored than expected. No bitter after taste, but maybe a little boring?

Very nice and easy Chard - smooth, creamy vanilla notes with that perfect amount of citrusy twing on the backside. Drinks easy!
