  A chardonnay with a noticeable taste of oak but it's not overwhelming, take care not to serve it too chilled. Nose is unremarkable. Nicely balanced taste, an uncomplicated and enjoyable choice but not an earth-shaking experience..

  Excellent Chardonnay, with apple and cream aromas. These are followed up with rich apple, sour cream, and biscuit flavors in the midpalate. A very well-made and balanced Chardonnay for the price--one that has richness without excessive oak.

  An oaky nose with nuts and oily coconut. The fruit was sour and it also showed some flowers. Medium intensity.
  Crystal clear and a rich and big taste with good acidty. Bitter-like finish and a somewhat short finish.
  Young, rustic and powerful with balancing acidity. Good. (not completely sure about the year)
