Quite enjoyable. Buttery with oak and lime. Small hints. Smooth and biscuity. I like it.

This is our favorite wine, light and crisp. It's the wine by which we judge all others.

Quite a good Chardonnay. Rich, without being overbearing with butter. Fruity but not too sweet; floral and a little acidic. Drank well with roasted chicken. Would buy again - got for about $14 on sale.

Simple Chardonnay, balanced not buttery but easy drinking and a fine balance to soba-2013 vintage
