This is one of those California Chardonnay's that is so heavily oaked I could just about chew it. This would be waaaay too much for lots of people, but my 1980s aunt would be all up in this. There was this deep nutty funk on the nose which I rather enjoyed. Sherry-esque. I was picking up baked beans on toast again, heaps of butter, extremely creamy, flabby bastard. Perfect if you like old school Cali Chardonnay. - Ross Gardiner
