Pours butter in color. ON THE NOSE: pineapple and buttered popcorn. ON THE PALATE: honeydew melon, and butter. Acid level seems low leading to some flabbiness. Not crisp. Light body short finish.

It's very rare for me to like a Chardonnay but this one is on point. Very tasty. Not bitter like most. Impressed.

Oak bomb but balanced with ripe tropical fruit. Butter popcorn lingers on the palate to give this wine a super long finish.

Fuller bodied as you would expect from a chardonnay, but has a long finish that gives a fruity/peachy aftertaste. I prefer a drier wine and this one is a bit too fruity for me. Don't think I'll be buying again but I wouldn't dissuade someone from buying if they prefer fruity.
