Although I didn't get to taste it, the others liked it. Straw colored in the glass, pears and apples on the nose and palate. There was a reported hint of spice and caramel on the nose and palate.

Light clear yellow. Light citrus and oak. Good acid balance; fairly light weight with good tartness. Not over-oaked or over-blown, but distinctly Californian as opposed to Burgundian style. This is well made and a good bargain.

Balanced chard with butter and oak but so some nice minerality and acidity. Overall a great buy that seems to be fairly representative of the region and style.

Light yellow. Decent wine, not very complex but pleasant. Not over-oaked.

Decent drink for the $$ but nothing memorable and nothing like its "unfiltered" counterpart.

Disappointing. Over oaked and disjointed. Drinkable, but there is just so many better options.

Very flavorful, but seems a bit too oaky and "manipulated" to me.

Light yellow with citrusy/flowery favors and a bit of oak complexity. A solid, basic Chardonnay at a great price.

Quite a disappointment. Overdone and too much acidity for a Chardonnay.

Really nice, crisp with just the right notes of butter and oak. A real nice wine and a great value.

Consistently good Napa chardonnay. Light amount of oak, nice acidity, white peaches, slightly creamy and nice mouth feel.
