Smells like buttered popcorn, pear, whipped honey. Crisp acid on the palate, creamy texture from the ripe pear and green apple fruit. Some toasted oak, hazelnut and cinnamon as well. For the price ($9) very serviceable. A good party wine that goes down easy and could work with a lot of apps.

I thought this was pretty good. Some body, not *big*, but ok. Typical wine flavor, no real acid on tongue, but did pack some character, just nothing to jump up and down about. Subdued oakiness, which is good for me, I don't like heavily oaked wines. I'd buy again.

On the nose there's burnt matches, apple, melted butter & caramel ~ On the palate it's round & soft with flavors of wet campfire, pear, apple sauce & floral notes ~ Fans of this oakey style Chardonnay wouldn't be disappointed as an everyday wine

Not bad, good concentration. There's a greenish stems and pips vein similar to the Malbec from the same vintage and producer. Quaffable, but not much more.

I'm not sure how to describe this other than as a well made, solid everyday, New World quaffing Chardonnay. The nose is attractively floral and peachy, the palate has got a nice mix of citrus and tropical fruits, but there is also a definite creamy weight that can cope with a range of foods. Perhaps a little too much oak for my preferences, but it is neither overwhelming nor off-putting. It fades quite quickly on the finish which prevents it from being very good.

Creamy, butterscotch with some tropical fruit. Let it sit a couple hours and it's less creamy, more acidic. The wine looks Straw colored. It smells like Apple, Pineapple, Pomegranate, and Butterscotch. The body is Medium. The wine has Silky texture. The wine finishes Short.

Vanillary aromas on the nose. On the palate some significant oak influence, like vanillary and creamy notes. Some pineapple fruit as well. A decent quaffer but a little less oak would have been nice.

Comparable with my former notes of this wine, be it from other vintages. A fresh wine with pure fruit, be it that it this time was a bit more faint than in other years. Again a good match with citrus, this time salad with apple and a lemon-dressing. 84-85.

Типичен за лардоне цвят. Усещам карамел. Много добро вино!

Crisp, refreshing flavors of apple, pear and stone fruit with butter, citrus and a hint of oak on the finish.

Branco de médio corpo, aromas de maçã verde, média acidez, amanteigado na boca, retrogosto de baunilha.

Upbeat and happy nose. Low acidity with a weak finish. Drinkable bottle of wine with appetizers rather than a meal.

Nice fat white. A lot of flowers in the nose. Taste was dominated by citrus.
