Clear, medium lemon. Developed nose of yellow apple, lemon, yellow melon, and pineapple, with additional butterscotch and a bitter note on the palate. The bitterness was mitigated by pairing it with the richness of Garlic Butter Steelhead Trout. Medium- acid, 14.5% ABV, medium- body, medium finish. A little past its prime, but it made a nice pairing nonetheless.
Sonoma County 66%, Napa County 34%.

Great QPR at $18 a bottle with smooth citrus and mild oak mid-palate. Nice in-between chardonnay, that might not please the heavy oak crowd or the stainless steel produced chardonnay aficionados, but seems just "right to me!"

Coconut and popcorn initially on the nose, medium weight on the palate, green apple, light oak, improving as it warms.

Enjoyable bottle. Went well with a overpriced Dinner in a casino. Wine was better than the food. Will buy wine again. Dover Downs no thanks.

Massive fruit and oak, high alcohol. Otherwise, not much to it.
