| Tasted by BailliSacks on 5/10/2009 & rated 90 points: Strong, bright acidity. Very clean. Just a hint of butter. Nice light mineral in finish. Food friendly. A very elegant finesse-oriented Chard. (480 views) | |

| Tasted by LPskeleton on 4/29/2009 & rated 90 points: round nose, lean on the palate with chiseled lemon flavors. Power w bracing acidity beautiful balance. consumed at trade tasting, no note taken (538 views) | |
| Tasted by jwsmith on 4/10/2009 & rated 89 points: Nice bright fruit not over oaked (578 views) | |
| Tasted by wino_tim on 3/11/2009 & rated 89 points: Soft and fresh with notes of green apple, and apple blossoms, this offers creamy texture, medium body and good acidity. (637 views) | |
| Tasted by elliotgl on 1/30/2009 & rated 89 points: In the glass a light gold offering a restrained nose of vanilla and maybe bannana - In the mouth a soft lucious seamless wine offering the taste of butterscotch and muted spice without the acidity other tasters found. This is obviously a well crafted wine and very plesant but devoid of acidity,complexity and a probable life beyond 2-3 years. (648 views) | |
| Tasted by Bschar on 1/30/2009 & rated 90 points: Subtle and interesting; stil a little young. (645 views) | |
| Tasted by wolverinetraveler on 11/4/2008 & rated 90 points: (586 views) | |
| Tasted by jwsmith on 11/1/2008 & rated 88 points: Not as good as the 2005 version, slightly brisk and tart. (697 views) | |
| Tasted by babnik on 10/16/2008 & rated 89 points: Green apple aromas that develop to apple cider with honeydew and peach flavors. Not much oak or butter -- the pure fruit chardonnay character really shines through. Really nice, but simple. I get the feeling that this balanced wine is more of an ager and will be ALOT better in 3-5 years. Right now, 89 points. (738 views) | |
| Tasted by wino_tim on 9/24/2008 & rated 89 points: On the sweeter, fatter side of Ramey's Chards but still appealing for its layered flavors of fruit and oak. (718 views) | |
| Tasted by jmull on 9/11/2008 & rated 90 points: Balance is the watchword here. Really nice pitted fruit (pear, peach) profile, with just the right amount of oak spice. As it warmed, a beautiful creamy vanilla aspect emerges. Fairly lush mouthfeel and a long finish. Nothing about this is mindblowing but it is essentially flawless. Exactly what one would want and expect in a entry level wine from a producer of Ramey's caliber. 90-91. (721 views) | |
| Tasted by jwsmith on 8/27/2008 & rated 91 points: Clear straw like chablis color nice toasted oak carmel nose with a lingering aftertaste. Very good classic puligny type finish. Great value at $ 36... (728 views) | |
| Tasted by Anonymous on 8/22/2008 & rated 88 points: from a restaurant wine list ($64). initially, served too cold. as it warmed, it calmed down in the glass, and after 30 minutes, it was drinking well. a bit lean and simple, but a nice straightforward profile without any major drawbacks. moderate oak. (835 views) | |
| Tasted by mellison on 5/26/2008 & rated 89 points: Very similar to the Russian River chardonnay. This is an ok chardonnay. Really feel that it is really a $25 chardonnay masquerading as a $38 one. (848 views) | |
| Tasted by 16% on 4/9/2008 & rated 89 points: Medium yellow, lighter body in the glass. Subtle floral notes on the nose. Interesting buttered popcorn up front, yielding to citrus throught the mid to the end. (999 views) |

Definition of "white wine" at Epicurious.com Varietal character (Appellation America) WineAmerica (National Association of American Wineries) | Free the Grapes! California Wines (Wine Institute of California) California is one of the most diverse wine regions in the world, with almost 100 grape varieties grown in almost 10 viticultural areas, including dozens of different microclimates and soil types, as well as a very individualistic set of winemakers, many with international experience, which adds to and deepens that diversity.
