Really below average for a California chardonnay, could not taste any varietal notes since they were overwhelmed by residual sweetness. Blue Nun is what I compare it to. Will not buy again.

Bought a case of this at the winery in Paso Robles on sale, so I've drunk this a few times. While this is not a fruit bomb, it is very fruit forward and every bottle has been quite sweet, way too sweet to enjoy with classic food. Perhaps this would be okay with spicy oriental food or BBQ.

Classic pinotage, with lots of smoky and leather notes. I've had more full bodied pinotages but this one stood up to grill tri-tip with no problems but didn't overwhelm salmon.
