Creamy mouthfeel, fresh acidity, and notes of lemon, almond, pear, candied ginger, chamomile, and salted butter. 🤤 Has a few more years left in it.

Great ~$20 bottle from SommSelect. Bright and rich lemon custard, fresh ginger, almond paste and flinty minerals. Slight hint of oxidation and nuttiness. Nice acidity and a crispy salty texture on the palate at the wine warms. Complex and delicious! Thoroughly enjoyed with some grilled chicken and veggies. Will seek out again.

My #1 white, with a bullet: love the hybrid of crisp, delineated fruit and a round, almond paste, more oxidative style. Has layers, freshness, & love to taste in 5 yrs. oh, and its under 20$-thats insane

Nutty, bright citrus notes, a bit of creamed corn, and a good dose of minerality. Well done, especially for the price

Complex, nutty, acidic. If this is what Chardonnay is doing right now, I'm in.

Quite tasty for the money—creamy texture, citrus, almond paste, some salinity.
