This was OK....it was hyped by the wine store salesperson, but I was really not blown away by it. Yes, it is unoaked, and due to American over-oaking issues with Chard, this is the style of American-produced Chardonnay that I generally like. However, just because it's unoaked doesn't automatically make it an 88-89 pointer! I give this wine 87 points.

(FOUR VINES NAKED CHARDONNAY) #1; COLOR-medium golden; NOSE-very fresh, watermelon peel; subtle hint of Mango; TASTE-has enormous weight for this style Chard; great acidic balance; really beautiful pear peel & apple, I like the richness; shocked how heavy & complex this is; nice grassy knoll aspect; beautiful lemon peel; extremely impressive; a MUST buy; GV-89

consistent with prior note. light fruity and dry on the palate. This time the creaminess was very evident, especially on the 2nd night.
