I'm not sure if this bottle is representative, but it seems a little long in the tooth for a 2012. I've got one more, so I'll try to report back...
Wow, what a deep golden color to this one! Looks like a hangover pee (sorry). Pretty tight on the nose, with just a little saline and a hint of waxy yellow fruit coming through. Medium (+) body, acid, and finish, with predominantly apple juice and pear flavors, along with lemon. Good for seafood and lighter fare, or maybe be good to cut through a creamy sauce, if not terribly exciting. Hard to complain at $11 though.

Good balance and structure, no one pegged it as chard; if there's any oak, it's beautifully integrated, but this doesn't have the zing of a good Chablis, for example. Overall a substantive white that could go well with any number of lighter foods. Ready.
