Nice blend of sweet apple and pear, some peach. Some floral notes with medium oak and sufficient tasty butter. Crisp and refreshing. A bit more minerality and slightly less sugar would be welcome. An excellent value in the $15 range.

Restaurant - French Gourmet - 2019 (La Jolla, San Diego, CA): Nice overall. Good value. Moderate butter finish. Good pairing with cooked scallops with cauliflower dollops, and spiced rice pilaf wit carrots, onion, and pepper. Anniversary dinner - wife got with meal. $8 / glass; $13 / bottle with discount at French Gourmet restaurant. Bought a bottle.

Dull to start, but served a little cooler and some air improved it. No perceptible oak. Initial flatness gave way to a fine orange peel character after an hour or so.

This is nice everyday wine for food or sipping. There isn't much nose and it has a pale yellow color. There's tropical fruit and some chardonnay character with a little oak but it's not heavy. It has some acid so can stand up to food and the mouthfeel is clean. There isn't much finish but it's a nice wine for the price point.

At $12 a nice Chardonnay with some apple fruit little if any oak a touch of vanilla. A serviceable white wine for for simple light meals or before dinner.

A lighter style, with significant, almost salty minerality. A nice inexpensive food wine.

Muted citrus, a little butter, medium bodied. Not at all bad for the price.
Score: 86-87. Relative to expectations: 0

Bright apple and a slight, yeasty autolysis-driven character. Balanced acidity in a lightweight body. Straightforward and clean.

Bright citrus apple and pear aromas, crisp, refreshing, dry and totally fresh, simple but well done, an easy table wine
