May 11, 2017 - Light gold, fast legs, light/medium body. Aromas of stone, light dust, minerals, maybe a bit of honeysuckle. Flavor hints of lemon/lime but stones and minerals predominate. Medium acidity, short finish. Overall impression: a solid, value-priced unoaked Chard. Suitable as a daily drinker for those who prefer Chablis-like Chard over butter and cream. Good summer party wine. At $7 price QPR is average. Lasted well over 3+ days. Drink now.

December 15, 2016 - Crisp and pleasant, notes of lemon without the buttery texture of oak-aged chardonnay.
