  Decanted for 20 minutes. Straw yellow in the glass. The medium bodied palate was very smooth hinting at some MLF, but without any obvious oak. The palate showed lemon and a touch of lime, minerality, and just some light white fruits like yellow apple and pear. The acidity was juicy and a bit more than needed to balance. All in all, just an OK+ Chardonnay that will probably hold for some years.

  I'm not sure what the previous 4 tasters were experiencing, but we sure didn't have the same thoughts. The chard almost seemed watered-down as the flavor was quite muted and mouth feel was thin. I'm not looking for a Rombauer fruit-bomb, but for the price, I wanted to taste 'more'.
