  Light color, no oak. Very neutral wine. Little nose, short finish. Dry. Bulk wine quality.

  On opening, distinctly chemical nose, which wore off in ten minutes
  
  On palate, feels like a wannabe Macon, with piercing acidity
  
  A bit overpriced at Garagiste $14

  Tasted after 30 minutes of air. I was too harsh on this at first. I was influenced by some of the negativity around it. Is this a top notch example of Oregon Chardonnay? No. Is it quaffable and a decent value for the price? Yes. Rimmerman is a show boater and constantly overhyping everything he sells. I get it. He is trying to push wine. I still buy because does have some great values and is right more than he is wrong.
  
  Tangy citrus fruit. Decent balance. A hint of nuttiness. Pretty one dimensional. Well made though. Not a wine that rises to the Delille name though. I expect better from them. They are not St. Michelle.

  Tasted after 30 minutes of air. Decent. I am back and forth on this. Last time I liked it. This time I am finding it simple and one dimensional. Some tangy citrus fruit. Decent balance. Not much on the finish.
