February 22, 2019 - Beaucoup de rancio, noisettes et amandes
avec des pommes brunis, pas aimé!
September 4, 2012 - Not over the hill yet. Still drinking beautifully. Full-bodied, smooth and creamy, this is packed with rich flavors of honeysuckle, apple and pear. Everything a Columbia Valley Chardonnay should be. There's plenty of vanilla on the finish, but it doesn't go over the top. In my opinion, the best this label has ever produced - by far. What a fantastic value.

February 7, 2012 - Polished and silky, this medium weight chardonnay offers a rich mix of pear and honeysuckle flavors. The long, creamy finish is loaded with apple, vanilla and spice notes, but doesn't go "over-the-top". In a style that will appeal to a vast audience, this is very easy to drink and incredibly well made for a $9 wine.
50+5+12+15+8=90
October 4, 2011 - Alightly acidic mouthful
August 8, 2011 - Funny, but when I took the first sip it tasted like buttered popcorn. Very oaked with loads of butter. Once it was open and warmed up a bit, I liked it better. The acidity started to come through, again with the green apple and pear. Went well with the cheese and crackers we were eating.
June 1, 2011 - Consistent with notes of 5/1/11.
May 1, 2011 - If anything, this bottle was better than previous ones. More complex flavors featuring carmel and butter but still supported by good acid.
March 14, 2011 - Perfectly decent and serviceable Chardonnay. Sort of buttery (perhaps too much for some), but overall, well balanced. Became a bot leaner through the bottle. All in all, a nice drink, particularly for under $15.
August 9, 2010 - Unbelievable value. This is a buttery, creamy chard with good balance and a medium long finish. Plays well in the much higher priced field of chards. Will not please the crowd looking for crisp tart efforts, but a real winner for my money.
July 19, 2010 - Medium gold. Tasty overall with floral, minerals, oak and buttery finish. Once again solid effort.
