Drank 7/23/20.

Simple nose of lemon and a touch of pear. Flavors are well balanced, with lemon curd and some peach notes. Clean, citrus driven finish. A middle of the road style.

2/22/7/4/3 +50 = 88

Nice, flavorful Chardonnay. Not buttery and somewhat citrusy.

Belle couleur or, fait penser au vin jaune plus léger. Finale acide. Très bon.

Solid oaky offering that I’d happily return to. I don’t follow the unoaked trend happening at the moment.

8/2020. I do not have much experience with Chardonnay. That said, this was easy to drink paired with baked chicken.

Very nice, good chilled. Refreshing wine that went well with a soup/bread/cheese lunch.

The sweetest Chardonnay I ever had. Pineapple, honey, oak.
