  October 29, 2020 - Simple et léger, citrons confits avec
  une petite pointe acide. Pas très long
  mais sans accroc, bien.

  June 16, 2018 - Good wine and especially for the price. Just a little effervescent but had some nice terrior. Clean, Crisp, light on the oak (perhaps a little too light - steel vats?).

  February 3, 2018 - This Decanter 95 (!) rated Chilean Chardonnay practically grew wings and flew off of the shelves around NNJ when the rating first came out. And sure enough this bottle was proudly displaying its Decanter rating sticker on its neck. However, when we opened this bottle it had an almost petrol-like and citrus nose which never quite went away over the course of the evening. This was followed by a tight lemon and stone framed palate and clean finish.
  
  Not sure what the Decanter tasting panel found to award it such a high score - I felt that this bottle lacked any strong secondary characteristics or more subtle layers that would have taken it to the next level.
  
  Purchased at a restaurant - poor storage conditions possibly?? But previous reviews seem to echo the same thing (one dimensional) albeit awarding the wine much higher scores.....

  September 16, 2017 - Chardonnay isn't my thing...maybe Newton unfiltered, but I like this. It made me think of a full bodied Sauvignon Blanc. We enjoyed this with grilled coho salmon.
  Nice apple and citrus flavors, no oak detected, clean on the palate.

  September 3, 2017 - Straw color. Citrus fragrance, no detectable oak. Primarily citrus, lemon and grapefruit, notes on the palate. Excellent astringency. Light body with medium to long finish. Straightforward but delightful.
