  (Mount Eden Estate Chardonnay) #7; (tasted blind); VaynerPAZZZ; COLOR-medium golden; NOSE-very American; heavy oak; burnt wood; buttered popcorn; a little apple sauce; PALATE-so ridiculously oaked; I'm flabbergasted that wine like this is still being produced; for my palate, this is a style that is just unacceptable; so ridiculously over-the-top; it's like drinking melted wood with a few lemons squeezed on there; heavily oaked; heavily buttered; many love this big over-oaked California style; RP-96; GV-68
