    January 31, 2022 - Always consistent quality with tropical fruit nose and medium body. Our house chardonnay.

    March 6, 2021 - Nice pale gold color in glass. Subdued nose of pear and apple. Good body with supple mouth feel and faint acidity. Give it a year.

    January 18, 2021 - Well balanced. A little oaky, but for the price, a nice everyday Chardonnay.

    December 22, 2020 - This is a high production chard but made with good quality fruit. Lots of burgundian style but more creamy oak. Lots of flavors here, perhaps too much. Expressive chardonnay, Parker would have liked this.

    December 13, 2020 - Not a Chardonnay fan in general, but this wine is changing my mind and urging me to expand a little. Nice price point, not overly oaky to my palate
    (which is why I generally don’t appreciate Chardonnay), lightly acidic, but still offered a creamy mouthfeel which I very much enjoyed. I don’t know how the Indian Wells compares to the regular bottle, but I’ll definitely be buying more of this. Highly drinkable. I can see it as a great table white.
