Dark gold; buttery ripe grape almost Maderized nose; maybe a bad bottle; fat, oily, one dimensional fruit bomb with hot finish (14.5 alc). No Chardonnay character anywhere to be found.

I was surprised by how good this wine was at this price ($18/bottle). Classic RRV Chardonnay profile, very smooth and very tropical with a lot of mango and passionfruit especially when chilled a little more than room temperature. Tasted a tiny bit sweet somehow, but it wasn't sweet...very nice wine, definitely want to get more at this price.

Yellow straw with green hues; very buttery, banana, ripe tropical fruit, full rich and fat, vanilla; bananas galore on the palate, butter, some decent acid on the back end, oak is strong but integrated fairly well; just not my style but a good value if this is your preference.
