Hmm. A bit of a disappointment. Slightly oxidized, caramel, soft. Is this typical? Not bad, but not what was expected.

Huge citrus notes with restrained oak and butter - much better as it warms up - bravo

Oaked Chardonnay with terrific balance of fruit, acidity, and oak. Very smooth finish with no sourness.
