Ripe fruit aromas with notes of spice. On the palate stone fruit flavors with lemon citrus zest adding a sweet creamy tone. Medium finish, ok acidity ending with fruit and mineral character. Ok value. Tasting Sample.

Strong notes of earthiness and melon. Surprisingly tart for a chardonnay. Also some minerality.

Smooth wine... was light enough for dessert but perfect flavor for our light meal

Fruity and not as smooth as others. Still good but lower on the list to buy again.

A rather good chard for the price - just enough oak to give it character with a fruity body and decent finish

No complexity. Little butter. Citrus fruit but too much alcohol. Won't get again.
So, I got it again because I never remember to check my wishlist when I'm at the store. I didn't hate it as much as I did the first time. But it's still not something i should get again. Maybe I'll remember next time I see it on sale. Self: don't get this.
