What @Ron R said. Finally a solid #Chardonnay from #France at a decent price point

A round, oak, aged wine with rich aromas.

Very impressed with this. Drinking perfectly now. Straw on the nose, with a hint of saline. Nice fruit profile of honeydew melon, apricot and pear. Finishes with honey, hazelnuts and soft acidity. Surprised that is held up so well. Gifted to me from one of the Latour grandsons - thank you, Tibo. From magnum.

Simple but tasty, especially for the sub $10 price point. Not much to say, which is good as inoffensive or innocuous is high praise given low expectations.

Super value. Winner of a 12 wine tasting, and this was the least expensive.

White burgundy at a crazy value. Big oakiness with salinity slightly obscured. Big acidity in finish.

A little creamy, buttery, dry. Balanced. My favorite budget Chard. $10.
