  This Chardonnay is right now, out of this world if you like a buttery vanilla Chardonnay. In the finish, it almost makes you think you are gonna taste chocolate, but it never really comes through. Just shared with three other couples and it was definitely the hit of the night. Paired with smoked Gouda and sweet spicy cornicons. It actually doesn’t need to pair with anything, it was excellent on its own.

  Possibly the first time I really disliked a CC wine. Dominated by oak and cream, with some tropical fruit in the background.

  Broad sweetish oaky vanilla palate, clean neutral finish. Decent buy at under $10.
