When they say "lightly oaked" they mean it. The oak is light but it IS there. Medium body, a little buttery, some golden raisins, cooked green apples and a very slight bitter note on the back end but it's definitely not a deal breaker. Perfectly decent wine for throwing a party and need to buy a decent white for a lot of people. Great value. Good for cooking, especially deglazing. There are better Chardonnays out there but most of them are not in this price range.
