Nice wine for $15. Buttery and yeast flavors. Some sea shell on the finish. -

July 12, 2017 - Surprisingly good for the price. Good butter flavor, but not much mineral or citrus.

February 21, 2017 - (Day 2) - color: light yellow gold; nose: light oak; taste: medium-bodied mouth feel, soft on palate, lychee fruit taste, medium-length finish with mineral and apple notes, mild tannins; overall: pleasant and interesting middle-of-the-oak-road chard, appealing style and structure, excellent QPR ($12.90/bottle at Costco), fully ready to drink as of Feb 2017, pour for company at happy hour or pair with frittata, mild fish, shrimp salad, etc. Will buy again!

December 16, 2016 - A nice value Chardonnay from the Russian River Valley, Frei Brothers 2014 Reserve is medium lemon yellow in the glass with a profile leaning towards tropical—papaya, ripe pear, buttered scone and baked apple tartin. The attack is round and full with moderate toast squarely at the mid-palate. A slightly short finish that adorned with toast and pencil shavings. 13.8% ABV | Sample
