  I would say this toes the line between over the top California Chardonnay and more restrained Burgundian versions. Ramey is a great producer and I think this holds up well for a middle of the road expression at a reasonable price (in this market). I prefer a cleaner version but I also serve a lot of guests who would like something with even more butter and oak. B+

  Delicious! Tasting notes in line with previous. Shame I don’t have any more of this and BBR have sold out.
  Had it with a rich sea food pasta again. Every bite wants a sip of the wine. What a combination! My 8 year old son called it “a party in my mouth”.
  Highly recommended!

  Paired great with grilled sea bass and greens. Not hugely oaky, well-balanced chard

  Great stuff this one. More like a good quality St. Aubin rather than a Californian Chardonnay. All at the price point of a mid-market Burgundy.
  If Californian Chardonnays are not your thing, do give this a try!
  Had it with crab and prawn pasta, which was a match made in heaven.
  I still have 5 bottles left, but these won’t last long! Might have to order another six.
  Not much benefit to cellar this. In a very good place now, but it will remain in its drinking window for c.5 to 7 more years I think. Great value for money.
