I wanted a buttery Chardonnay. This is that. I am extremely pleased by the straightforwardness of the label. It gets a lot of points for existing and telling me what it is. I am sort of bored and alone so I am barely enjoying this wine, but that is not the wine's fault. I drank half a glass and am about to use the the rest in a pan sauce. I'm sautéing a piece of cod, a marginally enjoyable fish. It is not fair of me to be experiencing this wine in the stultifying way that I am. The taste lives up to the description, and there is only a slight giveaway that the wine is chipped. It was twelve dollars, so I don't care. Thank you. — 10 years ago
