Restrained, racy, fresh and alive. No Musqué clones, no RS, no syrupy finish. Mostly Russian River. As good as affordable USA white wine gets.

Good Chardonnay and reasonably priced. A little sweet to start and a little over-Oaked. Good but nothing special.

Blinding Whites blind tasting virtual class! Picked up on the oak and vanilla notes right away with pear/apple fruit notes. Big round body with medium acidity and the tree fruits coming through. Telltale signs of a CA chard.

Lots of crushed chalk on the nose with some apple, big body and good acidity with tart lemon curd and more chalky minerals that coat the mouth. #gotm2020

Bright and lively with a rich mouthfeel. I get lots of pineapple.

Strålande till en kantarellpasta! Mustig, fruktig och fatig.

The fruit is lively and transparent, slightly creamy but no oak.
