Beautiful Chardonnay, the way I like it, not buttery, not oaked. Vibrant, and long finish. At $30 pricey for a white patio quaffer. “Tour de France” Tasting at NCWC.

Lovely chard. Lemon peel and slightly toasted bread. Some winter spices but drinks clean and smooth.

Crisp green apple, Meyer lemon, white rose petal, minerality, and a hint of spice.

Chardon me for saying nay to other wines, but this one has me feeling like a bottle nosed dolphin cresting through waves of joy ebbing from my empty heart and flowing into that sweet, glass of yours.

Lovely Chalonnaise chard. Array of ripe tree fruits, blossoms, lees, and melons on the nose/palate. Not particularly an earth driven wine but more complex in the layers of fruit/flower aromas it has. Great mid-palate roundness and bright acidity. Value.

Chassagne Montrachet wannabe for those of us who can’t afford the good stuff. Very well done w/all the prototypical trappings of White Burg - plenty of oak that’s for sure - elegant and delicious
