  Canary to gold color. Nose is tropical, maybes hint of less or cheaper oak. Taste is lacking acid, a bit flabby, and worst just sits in a pocket of overripe waxy tropical fruit, like star fruit a couple days late. Not my favorite, would not buy again. I’d rather have 1 Baer Shard over 2 Vincents any day.

  Popped and poured. Good hit of tropical fruit flavors on the palate. A piercing acid streak that some may not like. I like the higher acid wines though. Some nuttiness and a hint of oak then kick in. Medium finish. An excellent QPR as I picked this up at Costco for less than $10 a bottle.

  Comprised of 100% Chardonnay, Board Track Racer's Vincent White is a light golden wine that possesses a core of baked apple fruit, augmented with notes of banana, peach and orange creamsicle. Light-to-medium-bodied, fresh, softly oaked and with well-integrated alcohol (listed as 14.1%), it has good mid-palate density and a medium-length finish. While quite drinkable and technically correct, this Chardonnay lacks complexity and accordingly fails to excite. Drink now-2022.
