  To be perfectly honest, we stayed up and drank several bottles of wine last night and I did not pay as close attention as I have with the first four bottles in my introductory shipment; however, that's a shame, because I think this may be one of the best Chardonnays I have ever tried and definitely the best white wine in my box so far, with the Villa Masetti Pinot Grigio a close second.
  
  Very crisp, dry and assertive with the classic pear, apple and citrus flavors common to good Chardonnay with a very oaky ambiance and an aroma of honeysuckle and orange blossom.
  
  This wine seemed to cry out for food and we had cheese, but probably the wrong kind, because all I had was blue cheese and I think this would be even better with Brie or any other semi-soft less pungent cheese.
  
  The wine looks Yellow colored. The legs are Medium. It smells like Apple blossom, Honeysuckle, and Orange Blossom. It tastes like Lemon, Pear, Melon, Oak, and Vanilla. The body is Light/Medium. The wine has Bright texture. The wine finishes Medium.
