Straw color with tropical fruit aromas and heavy spice. The palate shows basic stone fruits with citrus tang and pungent spice. The wine had too much oak but thankfully the finish leaves quickly. Pass, better Chards out there at comparable prices. Tasting Sample.

Butter with acid, odd, but pleasing balance.

Unlike our beloved Badger's play tonight, his doesn't suck. Earns Lorrie's stamp of approval.

Great balance with more acid than you would expect from a Cali Chardonnay. Lightly oak. A real gem from a northern AVA for the Chablis lover.

Suggested for me by one of my wine guys with my taste insights in mind and completely hit the mark! The light butter, smooth finish and clean feel was everything I was looking for. It needed a second to breathe but was really great on the palate and I can't wait to get this one again since it's got such an awesome price point.
