Like the Ravines Chardonnays, this is an excellent qpr chardonnay that’s proof of concept for the finger lakes as a source of, at the very least, quality entry level chardonnay in a classically cool climate / Bourgogne appellation level style. Less oak than the standard Ravines bottle, closer in style to their Argetsinger bottling. Lean/M- body, nice but not aggressive acid, mandarin orange and orange blossom and modest mineral salinity. Can’t ask for more than this from a $20 Chardonnay…

One note fruit and overly sweet. Not worth it even for bargain price.
