So reminiscent of the fresh air after a rainstorm. Minerality dominates the nose on this, with subtle tones of white flowers and white peach. Medium bodied, dry and ever so crisp. This white burgundy is super versatile and a steal for the price.

Really light and acidic. Lemony notes. Not what I typically look for in a chardonnay.

What a fantastic easy day drinking Chard. Light and crisp with tropical fruit but the palette gives way to old works study with some minerality. Really nice finish. QPR @13 is great!b

Clean, fresh, citrus, lemon, and herbal notes. Made osso buco with this chardonnay and could let the rest go to waste! :)

Very peachy at first and then turning to apple. Light oak and vanilla, with mild green apple acidity and a little lemon. Minerality is subdued and hard to place. I've had Macon wines that left a bigger impression but this is very nice and good with food. I had it with a mild curry of catfish and that was a good pairing.
