With homemade chicken pot pie. Not bad at all. Lemon/apple nose, same with oak on the palate. We took this out of the cellar at ~60 degrees, and chilled it just a bit more before drinking. I believe that alone may have bumped up the score from my previous rating.

Underdeveloped aromas dominated by oak. Fairly well balanced acid but this did nothing to enhance the severely muted flavor profiles. I am not as much a fan of chardonnay as I once was, and this wine certainly did nothing to bring me back into the fold. Here, I will argue, this is more the fault of the wine and not the varietal. 82pts perhaps on the generous side.

Got this as a "mystery" bottle from a wine club and am very pleased with the taste of this Chardonnay. It's a light, fruit-forward wine with a hint of oak and flavors of peach and green apple. Recommended for everyday drinking, with or without food.

Dull, slight vanilla nose with citrus and apricot overtones, thin to medium body and lean, clean finish.

Forward peach and lemon flavors with beautifully subtle oak indicators.
