  February 19, 2015 - Nose: fresh pear and apple with subtle warm oak.
  Taste: First little sip tasted pleasantly like ripe bananas. Nice. Soft, warm and buttery chardonnay. Also tasted some lemon tea and roasted sweet corn. Tastes great colder than most white wines.

  September 25, 2013 - At $8 a great qpr, clean, crisp and albeit simple, but over-delivers for its pricepoint.

  July 5, 2013 - Nose: A clean aroma of pear, green apple, and citrus, maybe lemon? Also get a sweet ripe fruit smell as well, with some oak too.
  
  Taste: A pale yellow color with a nice clean crisp flavor with a good acidic backbone for support. Great tastes of apple, lemon, a bit of peach, and and a very small hint of cantaloupe. The touch of oak makes this more creamy than buttered oak. It’s good oak, restrained, not too much. The palate is dry, rounded, with a good contemporary profile that lingers for a just bit.
  
  Paired this with grilled butterflied shrimp and corn on the cob. Another thought is, in this opinion, we like the silver label a whole lot better than the upper end gold label. Try it for yourself, form your own opinion, it’ll be fun!

  April 8, 2012 - color: light yellow x gold; nose: lychee; taste: light-bodied mouth feel, buttery, apple taste, medium-length rounded finish; overall: pretty, modern-tasting chardonnay which is good by itself and will pair well with light hors d'oeuvres

  October 23, 2011 - Tasted blind from a decanter. Clean, medium lemon in color. The nose is clean, of medium intensity. Predominant aromas are citrus (lemon), some tropical fruit and some stone fruit. The nose appears to be developing since there are no secondary aromas. The palate is dry. The acidity, alcohol, body are all medium. The flavor intensity is medium plus but the length drops back to medium. The palate is consistent with the nose and shows lemon and lychee. Overall, this is good, but a little flabby and subdued. Drink now. This wine is not intended for ageing. This is definitely a good value in the $12-$17.00, especially the lower end!
