| | Tasted by JLewis376 on 7/9/2016 & rated 88 points: No big Oak or butter. Pear and a little citrus. Drinks more like a Sauvingnon Blanc. (2252 views) |
| | Tasted by vin0vin0 on 5/9/2014 & rated 85 points: Fair chardonnay. Touch of lemon cream and a bit of smoky oak, not much complexity but for $10 it's alright. (4012 views) |
| | Tasted by madvitale on 4/9/2014 & rated 87 points: Very pleasant Chard. Not a California Chard by any means. Light, refreshing, and good with the fish. Had with broiled haddock with dill. Not a lot of oak, but that is OK with me for a light Chard. Excellent qva, considering it is under $10. (3897 views) |
| | Tasted by CMARSHALL on 12/13/2013 & rated 88 points: The wine looks Straw colored.
It smells like Grapefruit, Apricot. No oak and not much butter. Crisp and clean.
The body is Light/Medium. The wine finishes Short. (3842 views) |
| | Tasted by mdefreitas on 10/16/2013 & rated 84 points: Average, mediocre, light Chardonnay. Citric, with noticable oak spice. Fairly generic Chardonnay without much depth and fair for the price, I guess. (4422 views) |
| | Tasted by CMARSHALL on 10/7/2013 & rated 89 points: The wine looks Straw colored. The legs are Medium. It has pear notes with just the right amount of butter. Great house chardonnay. (2707 views) |
| | Tasted by wineshaman on 8/25/2013 & rated 87 points: Big lemon favors, a lot of acidity, maybe the acidity will intergrate with a few months in the bottle. Other wise taste like it cost more than the $9 I paid! (1477 views) |
| | Tasted by K&J on 8/25/2013 & rated 90 points: Somewhat exquisite if not eclectic Chardonnay. This is due to the aging on Viognier lees. Try this if you are looking for a "not your everyday Chard". (1005 views) |
| | Tasted by K&J on 8/3/2013 & rated 90 points: Great quality to price ratio! (1011 views) |
| | Tasted by Bebum on 6/9/2013 & rated 88 points: Greatest quality is the body, which is unusually full and a good match for food. Off-dry, plenty of acidity but not tart, rounded mouthfeel, thanks to the high alcohol (and glycerin), simple, floral flavor profile. Good length, basic vinous aftertaste. (1609 views) |
| | Tasted by Votefordennis on 5/9/2013 & rated 88 points: Nice aroma, starts off OK, but something in the aftertaste that's unappealing (1791 views) |
| | Tasted by BadOyster on 5/7/2013 & rated 90 points: Such a solid Chardonnay - simply can't get better for so cheap a price! (1845 views) |
| | Tasted by BadOyster on 3/12/2013 & rated 90 points: It's an electric, saline, refreshing chardonnay with minimal-to-no oak. Absolutely fantastic buy for $10 ... but don't go around comparing this to California Chardonnays - it's very different. (2096 views) |
| | Tasted by mwneil on 3/7/2013 & rated 82 points: Interesting wine. Clean, good fruit and acid, however after the first glass you don't want any more of this wine. just not my style. It is a chardonnay but ... Can't agree with the WA review. (1640 views) |
| | Tasted by nzinkgraf on 3/3/2013: Lots more lemon than I recall previous vintages. Still a little peachy note on the palate. Texture, but not overly floral. Nice and easy style. Nice acid for Rousillon. 70% stainless, 30% 2 months in 2nd fill barrels. (1465 views) |
| | Tasted by Motz on 2/19/2013 & rated 88 points: Really solid, leans to New World, not over-oaked though. A Chardonnay of very good concentration and decent finish. No clincher or attention grabbing elements however. (1225 views) |
| | Tasted by Barrygloec on 2/15/2013 & rated 90 points: Sandy likes this (1379 views) |
| | Tasted by hgddsas on 2/12/2013 & rated 89 points: Pleasant and dry. Nice creamy notes after it opened up and warmed up from the fridge. Everything a chardonnay should be for $12. (1191 views) |
| | Tasted by K&J on 1/26/2013 & rated 90 points: Very interesting notes of honeysuckle and floral. Probably comes from aging some on Viognier lees - gives this wine quite a unique character. (1060 views) |
| | Tasted by whudock on 1/24/2013 & rated 88 points: not a great effort, but interesting. at best, an everyday wine and a decent QPR (1445 views) |
| | Tasted by Ben Christiansen on 1/17/2013: Allot crisper than I remember it. (1175 views) |
| | Tasted by JeffnCin on 12/6/2012: Decent glass of chard, although it lacks intricacy. Good with food, great price, so a good wine to have on hand. (1993 views) |
| | Tasted by Ben Christiansen on 11/28/2012: Yes opened. Rather complex but in a "made" way. (1716 views) |
| | Tasted by Number51 on 10/13/2012 & rated 89 points: Cucumber-like freshness and oyster-like minerals on the nose lead to a pleasant and well balanced palate with some acacia flowers and a bit of Japanese Sake. Certainly not oaky, the flavor profile is somewhat unusual for a Chardonnay, I'd have believed it if someone told me this was some other varietal.
Low alcohol always earns a better score from me. 13% alc. $11. (2219 views) |
