2013 vintage; can't complain about the $12 price. Actually not much to complain about, or to get excited about. Light on aromas and taste, just pleasant. Could enjoy a bottle with a view overlooking the bay. Oh, that's what we're doing.

A fantastic go-to with great flavor, subtle oak notes and very crisp. I would never turn this down.

Citrus lingering finish. Some vanilla finish. Some pineapple. Fairly silky mouthfeel. Not much oak. Good everyday wine

The oak notes play out a buttery, lemony tune... that's how they do it in Monterey
