I’m not a big pro at white wines but wanted something refreshing to sit outside with to enjoy today’s cooler weather. I normally like unoaked Chardonnays but I do like Francis Coppola wines so thought I’d try this one. It’s very dry with tropical fruit tastes. Has a nice long finish that makes you want the next sip. Now all I need is some sharp white cheese and crackers!

Fruit forward with only a slight tinge of butter, this Monterey Chard tastes of Gala apples and pears and refreshing white grapes in the finish. Try it with poultry dishes!

Apricot and a bit of butter and cream on the mouth. Acidity on the finish, with a lingering smokiness.

Over extracted, buttery disaster. High alcohol, no elegance, or balance. That being said, we used it to cook the Chicken Piccata and it was awesome.

Not bad, but I just cannot justify a score higher than 7. It's a pleasant wine with nothing outstanding about it.
