First taste crisp, but then a bit harsh, and then not much of anything. Overall best descriptor is mediocre. For me, there is are much better chardonnays at this price point.

On the nose, Meyer lemon, honey notes, pineapple, green apple flesh with no skin, lime, melon, notes of orange citrus, spring flowers & jasmine
The body is light, slightly waxy, lemon, honeycomb, light green & red apple without skin, tropical melons, pineapple, yellow lilies and spring flowers. Beautiful round acidy. Great texture, length and understated polished finish.

Strong aromatics...white peach, green apple. P: Crisp acidity presenting as the nose although more modestly. Was quite Chablis like. seemed to be fermented in stainless or more neutral oak. Good QPR.

Straw color, apple & lemon meringue scents that continue with honey in the flavors. Slightly acidic finish with hints of peach & melon.
