  Lovely. Lots of citrus. Creamy texture but nice acidity. Some oak but very well integrated. Paired perfectly with grilled chicken marinated with lemon and Italian herbs.

  Lots to like here. My palate says this has some Chablis style crisp austerity underlying the ripe California stuff. They really got this right. Yes some oak, but not really too much. Lemon and citrus. Nicely balanced acid. Viscosity is spot on. Leaves an exquisite tangerine flavor lingering on the finish.

  Two hour slow ox. Golden yellow color. Heavy custard and lemon oil dominate. Dry, slightly creamy palate, with nice acidity.
  
  I’ve seen mixed reviews on this and I’d say it’s better than expected. I can see this improving over the coming year or two. Very solid for the price point.

  A really nice chardonnay and a great QPR. A palate of melon, citrus, pineapple and hints of oak. The finish was moderate to long. With Sunday night sushi.

  Typical Cali chard of the light oak variety. Seed/stone fruit and a bit of yeast in the nose. Honeycrisp apples with a bit a caramel and nuttiness in the taste.
