First, the bottle was free. That is always a good thing. Second, not a Chardonnay fan at all so keep that in mind as well. Now, onto the notes: Light gold in color and had hints of tastes like apples, pear, a little sour apple, and carried decent acidity. Certainly not a top notch chardonnay but at the price point you can occasionally find it in, not a bad bottle at all. Recommend drinking now if you still have any.

When I drank this, I found it a pretty basic, but good straightforward chard. Lots of apple and pear upfront with smooth notes of honeysuckle and green grapes and a touch of oak, actually nice French oak, on the finish. It is indeed mouth filling and creamy. Very solid buy.

Hot, metallic, and tasting of over-ripe fruit...when you could taste it behind the heat. Little hints of dried apricot. Nothing at all to write home about.

Extremely well made, balanced, and affordable Chardonnay for $11. Aromas of pear, lemon curd, and apple are followed by a bright yet round palate with notes of starfruit, pear, more apple, and a creamy tang. More complex and layered than most at this price point.

Evan got this one pretty much to himself. That is what happens when it is a hot Saturday and Lindsay would rather sit out and enjoy the sun.
I enjoyed this bottle. Rating: Good to very good.

A little round for my taste with little minerality, but some nice melon and apple.
