Beautiful White Burg :) . Oak is integrating. Still sharp and crisp seems to have another 10 years ahead of it. Last bottle from this producer. Need to seek more out. Took a flyer on a promo from WineX. Nice balanced wine way under $20
see my other notes. reduction is subsiding but still present. Acid and minerality carry this wine front to back

Quite nice. Citrus, lemon, a bit of yellow stone fruit lurking, hints of custard/vanilla, but only just, and then the crisp lemon & mineral kicks in. Moderate body and length. I'd say the only downside is does not develop a whole lot and thus richness and nuanced complexity is a bit lacking. Somewhat of a nit pick for a bottle obtained for $11--so great qpr.

Very impressive chardonnay even beyond the price point which is a steal for the quality. Thinking it was simpler, I served too cold, maybe 42oF, which accentuated the lemon aroma, and acidity and salinity but when it warmed in the glass (say 50oF) aroma intensity became medium plus and complex, including deeper lemon custard, apple, peach and quince with fine minerality and seabreeze, increased body and (non-obtrusive slcohol). Medium body and medium finish with high. Excellent pairing with Linguine alle vongole!

Bright, floral, fruity, and complex across the palate. Such a good wine regardless of the price, and for $10/bottle this is just fantastic. I'd go so far as to say one of the best values in wines I've ever had. As good as the previous year, but different in character, with this one being a little more floral.

Minerals and Sea Shells on the nose. Strong acidity and crispness up front. Tropical Fruit, Chalk dust, Minerals on the pallete. Very dry.... A very good Burgundian Chablis style chard from Chile. Seriously good and serious QPR.

Encore assez beurré et boisé mais
pas à outrance. Fleurs, amande et agrumes.
Un peu de silex avec une belle longueur.
Bien.

Very nice. Last bottle, and would definitely buy again especially at pricepoint. Reasonably full, balanced.

This was really yummy and a great value. Had at a holiday party, so I don't remember that much.
