  I really liked this straight out of the bottle. It didn't taste too oaky to me, but I've been known to be completely off in interpreting tastes. A few sips later and the oak definitely shines through. It tastes like a nice, full bodied wine, and I enjoyed it. I think my exact words to Joel were "I typically enjoy wines from Lucas and Llewellyn, and this one didn't disappoint."
  
  We paired it with a Thai inspired peanut butter noodle stir fry, and I thought they went well together. The chardonnay definitely stood up to both the peanut butter and the spice in the noodles. By contrast, I ate a piece of pineapple after dinner and then took a sip of wine. And immediately regretted it. The pineapple and this chardonnay did not mix well at all, in my opinion.
  
  Overall, I would recommend this wine.
  
  That's all I've got for now. I'll try to pop in later and answer any other questions, but this site is blocked at work, so you may need to rely on Joel to get information.
