Purchased this chardonnay from Sam's for around $30. Vibrant aromas of pineapple, peach blossoms and chalk dust. Huge burst of tropical fruit up front with a large dollop of oak, that at first leaves you dreading a wood-splintered ending. However, a wave of acidity mollifies the oak on the finish leaving you with an impression that the wine just nailed a somersault. A "sunny" wine, if that makes any sense. I liked it. Paired well with grilled halibut.
