    July 9, 2022 - Formal notes not recorded, but recall this was a better than average wine, and especially for the money. Some was used for cooking and the rest consumed over 4 days, and was refrigerated each day. I like French Chardonnay over domestic at this price because I think I get better quality. Was not super fruity but nicely balanced, but simple also. But still had the tangy, acidic chardonnay profile. After having, makes me want to explore other white French wines, chablis or other grape varieties.

    July 3, 2022 - A riper style. Medium -full bodied, with just enough acid to balance it out. Seems to be just off dry, but could also be the layers of fruit. Peach, apricot and mango. Some wet stone on the finish.

    May 10, 2022 - Great QPR is right! About as full-bodied a French Chardonnay as I’ve had (I’d call it medium-plus). It’s lovely and ripe, with melon and pineapple dominating and a little peach in the background. Plenty of acidity to carry the fruit. As others suggest, there’s a floral note from the viognier lees. There’s a bit of spice on the finish along with a little bitterness which I’m guessing is from the oak.
