Great Chardonnay! Had a tropical feel, something I have never tasted before. Hints of pineapple and plenty of citrus! Yum!

My kind of Chardonnay: creamy mouthfeel but with crisp minerality. Ripe fruit gives complex flavour without sweetness. Balanced acidity, slight oak on finish. Great value. And available in Trader Joe's! :)

Nice Chardonnay, especially for price. Light buttery oaky flavor.

Tall grass. Solid buttery notes with hints of melon. Would buy again
