Lemon, Gravel, Pineapple, Yogurt on the nose. It’s off dry. Medium bodied and acidic up front but mellowing on the end. Coconut and citrus on the pallet. Really great wine at a great value. — 7 years ago
Purchased during a recent visit to Hawaii and it survived the flight back to AZ. Very fragrant- a solid punch in the sniffer of pineapple sweetness. Brings back awesome memories of a fantastic vacation. Can't say I'd drink it regularly but it definitely a fun treat. — 8 years ago
A really beautiful New World Chardonnay. Initial notes of golden apple and a touch of pineapple. Balanced acidity and oakiness come through as lemon curd and vanilla. — 9 years ago
Lovely Riesling even from a mediocre year. Nice acidity but not high enough to imply long life. Good minerality. Green apples, good pineapple and a little peach. — 9 years ago
Much lighter in color than expected. Lots going on: pineapple juice, chamomile, lemon curd, oyster shell, beeswax, white flowers...huge finish. — 11 years ago
Very good, easy to drink on its own, but would certainly hold up to a variety of foods ... would be quite good with fish. On the nose - initial strong notes of apricot and possibly pineapple, more subtle notes of green apple, peach, and purple grape. On the palette - quite fruity, relatively long finish. Maybe a bit of fig taste. Comes across as sweet but in further thought is rather off dry. Creamy in the mouth. Strong mandarin flavor. — 7 years ago

My first 'old' Champagne: no fizz, just some vague tingling. Mild oxidation, sauteed pineapple, caramel, hint of salivating sweetness, really complex and deep. Pretty impressive what chardonnay can do! — 11 years ago
From a 2012 successful harvest this “Chardo” is no exception of a classical Napa Valley showcase. Opened at 55 degrees for inviting botanical, and subtlety toasted aromas. Mouthfeel incredibly light no oak for instance… bwell balanced for that peach, pineapple, and all that ripe baked fruit like that fruit tartars from that famous French Bakery. Ten years later it does stand to be drinkable now, not later than 2023

Wow...has this wine improved since I had it last. It's still thick and waxy but it's added a beautiful butterscotch quality. Add to that; a honey character, green apple, citrus, pineapple, citrus blossoms, chalkiness and minerality that is so soft, elegant & beautiful that is rare even in this quality burgundy. The acidity is perfect as is the balance, mouthfeel, structure, length and a finish you want in all your white burgundy. So elegant. Can't believe how underrated and under appreciated this terroir remains...not to mention the producer. — 9 years ago
15' Bevan Dry Shack SB. The palate is full of pineapple, peaches, a citrusy dream! Nice entangled of acidity & lemon peel on the back of your palate. At this price point...it can't be beaten. A few more months in the bottle, will only help it. The best Bevan SB ever! 93+points. — 9 years ago

Not too sweet and tastes just like pineapples! Pairs great with poke or Thai food. I was really shocked by how much I liked this wine and I’m not normally a sweet white wine drinker. — 7 years ago
