  This bottle was a touch frizzante. However, I still enjoyed it and would tentatively rate it at 88.
  
  Loads of acidity as other tasters have noticed. More Chablis like than most new world Chardonnay. Better with food.

  Great balance, lighter citrus notes. Nothing fancy or objectionable.

  Crisp and acidic, but the lemon note was way out of balance. As in, our lips puckered and we both agreed that we could not drink this wine by itself. If you have a recipe with a rich citrus sauce, this would work nicely. Otherwise, would not buy again.

  Not sure why other tasters have rated this wine so poorly. Were they perhaps expecting one of those big, oaky, sweet, flabby California monstrosities? This is just the opposite: delicate, appley, citrusy, refreshing, quaffable. Almost like a cross between a Pinot Blanc and a Mâcon Chardonnay. While attractive now, it should soften and gain complexity with time.
