  Mostly apple without a lot of oak or butter. It's fine.

  2018 Rodney Strong Chardonnay (California)
  Decent aroma of apple and toasted oak with a distant whiff of pear. Even more apple and pear on the taste with a scrape of butter too. Not the creamiest Chard in the bargain bin but still has a nice mouthfeel thanks to some soft tannins. A solid workhorse effort with in-your-face flavour that lasts longer than William Shatner was weightless. OK, this wine is about as elegant and eloquent as an elephant but for a penny pinching pensioner, it’s a lot more relevant.

  Looking for some low-end variations in the wine alley at Jewel: how the mighty have fallen. Dulcie proclaims this to be better than Cupcake, which is apparently her yardstick for cheap chardonnay. I admit this wine appears a lot less industrial and synthetic, and the slightly oaky aroma seems authentic. It's not bad at the price.
