Community Tasting Notes (5) Avg Score: 84.8 points

  • The more I remember drinking this wine, the more I dislike it and do not want to drink my remaining bottle. I also don't want to give it to anyone because they will think I have bad taste in wine. Maybe in a risotto it would be OK. Sweet, cloying, no complexity. Stay away.

  • Drank during a party, so no notes really, but I was very impressed with this for $5. Great QPR!

  • When I bought this, didn't realize that there was both the well-acclaimed "House" series and the "Table" white which I assume to be cheaper -- that's why I thought $5 was a good price. I'll say it's an "OK" price -- tastes like about a $5 chard. (OK, well maybe $6-9 at retail) Pale yellow color. Nose of apricot, pineapple. Not altogether unpleasant. A bit too much sweetness lingers for my taste -- something I've found in other WA low-price-point chardonnays (and of course in almost all CA low-price chardonnays, which is why I avoid those like anything!)

    Really not bad, just not my thing. I would say you can get far worse wines out there in this price range. My brother-in-law likes the sweeter "fruitier" wines and seems happy with this one.

    [Edit] researched the producer website, found this: Chardonnay 88%, Riesling 10%, Muscat Caneli 2%. That makes sense. I definitely could taste "something" other than chard -- the Riesling isn't unexpected but the Muscat, even at 2%, probably helped give it some more of that forward flavor. Many will like this, and for me, it was just not my thing. Overall, I think it's not at all a bad blend for people "who like this sort of wine." It's a decent white for people who want, I guess, a "White table wine." Oh, wait, that's what it's called.

  • So, so wine, no depth, unsatisfying finish.
