Ok. Too much acidity.

The oak was restrained. Not too heavy or “buttery”. An enjoyable burgundy. Our party was eating tuna and grouper and enjoyed the wine.

Really surprised how much I like this. Starts with a bright nose. It has acid similar to a Chablis and the unripe apple, lemon, and complexity of a Beaune. Great value Chardonnay that eschews the flabbiness and oak of others in the price range. #qpr

Lime, lemon curd, green apple, high mineral tone, minimal oak intervention. Finish with a hint of wax and key lime pie.Bright and lively. Would go well with any curry or spicy food. This is an amazing value by the ever so reliable negociant house. Quaffable. 86.

Don't normally like chardonnays. Easy to drink went well with chicken Dijon stew.
