 Tasted by bwb on 1/3/2018 & rated 85 points: P thinks it’s too sweet (922 views)
 Tasted by Otaku Oenophile on 11/19/2017 & rated 85 points: Actually has notes of (in order of most to least) apples, cream, and a little pear and lemon.

It's somewhat balanced.

What it really needs is more concentration of everything. (1012 views)
 Tasted by wahoo70 on 11/12/2017 & rated 88 points: Lovely, enticing nose, with golden fruit (pineapples especially), a touch of vanilla and a hint of spice; rich and round, not quite off dry, tons of golden fruit flavors through the midpalate; butterscotch and lemon zest at the end of a long finish. Attractively priced - our go-to white wine. (1048 views)
 Tasted by Achromat on 9/5/2017 & rated 87 points: A middle weight Chard with lemon, apple and oak notes. A bit short in finish. Pleasant but not profound. Got it on close out at $5.50 so quite the deal. (997 views)
 Tasted by Parnelli on 7/26/2017 & rated 88 points: As per my previous notes ... another consistent bottle that delivers for the price. Had it with a shrimp pasta and it was very, very good. (1027 views)
 Tasted by Parnelli on 7/13/2017 & rated 87 points: 68 points ... really! For the price, this wine delivers. We had it with baked lemon zested panko halibut and it was very good. No it doesn't have the 'butter' of a high priced chard, but for a Thursday night, it was just fine. Great QPR! (469 views)
 Tasted by csimm on 7/10/2017 & rated 68 points: Alcohol and lemon juice. Even your drain will be mad at you for trying to feed this wine to it. (2090 views)
 Tasted by sdwineguru on 5/7/2017 & rated 88 points: Sharp mid-gold; toasty, peach, stone fruit nose; mid-body; fruity, semi-crisp; decent acids; short finish. (491 views)
 Tasted by DMcDaniel on 4/16/2017: Unremarkable. (399 views)

Chardonnay

The Chardonnay Grape

USA

American wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.

California

2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson

North Coast

The North Coast American Viticultural Area (AVA) in California, covering more than three million acres, includes Napa, Sonoma, Mendocino and Lake counties, and portions of Marin and Solano counties. (see The Wine Institute for more information)
