Not sure why the first bottle I drank wasn't as good but this one was mighty fine. No bad tastes this time. Rich, nice oak but not overly buttery (just enough).

Miner Chards are a little different and I have to remind myself of this every time I drink one. But over the course of the evening I usually fall in love with it the more I drink it. But this one just didn't grow on me the way others have. Maybe it is the vintage? I don't think I held it too long but it just didn't knock my socks off like a $40+ Chard should. Nicely balanced, good not great but it had a bit of a tart, chemically finish. Maybe it is just characteristic of this vineyard. I'll make a note to self to drink another Genny's soon and see how that one is.

golden color and buttery nose, taste and refreshing finish make this a perfect food wine.

A nice Chardonnay. I prefer more butter and oak but very good on a hot day.
