Not sure what I am missing given the lower ratings but this after three nights is still excellent. And the quality to price ratio is really really high.

initial bright nose, then mild citrus notes though not very pronounced, low oak, fresh, citrus on the palate, old world qualities

Lots of citrus. Not a lot of complexity or structure. Drinkable at 12 per.

Very nice Chardonnay. Citrus and peach fruit light acidity, some smooth buttery notes at the finish. Nice choice for $12.
