Had a bottle outside (in this ridiculous Texas heat) that was purposely over-chilled. Context may have played a factor, but really enjoyed this wine. It was perfect for drinking by the pool because it was not overpowering. Acidity was soft, fruit flavors were mellow and it was only slightly buttery/creamy. Good flavor and overall really good wine considering price.

First wine of a 3-course pairing. Great nose. Not too intense, but full of tropical and stone fruit notes. A touch of minerality. A bit of creaminess. The flavors melded with the food perfectly. Great balance of creaminess and acidity. Nice stone fruit flavors with a bit of citrus zing. This is a great food wine. Well made CA Chard.

I can't really get behind this wine. Pretty standard, rich and boring Chardonnay. 84-85

Bought at Chapman's in Fairlee. Had with lobster and it had good body but was not buttery enough

Nice wine. Balanced, not too buttery or oaky.
