Variety: Chardonnay
Region: Napa, California
Country: USA
Year: 2011
Price: $6.95

Shop/wine critic/winery review:
    The 2011 vintage marks a return to form for this great value Chardonnay.  The aromas feature creamy, mellow, golden apple, pineapple, fresh butter and a touch of vanilla.  Then rich, ripe, flavors of yellow pear, pineapple, fresh apple, cream and buttered toast swell up and fill your mouth before a juicy, apple and caramel inflected finish makes your mouth water (and smile!).



My Review
    This wine carries a honeyed color and has a tart, citrusy, lemony nose. Upon tasting, this wine is dry, citrusy, and smooth with some white grape flavor notes. It's a pleasant wine, but not extraordinary. 77-78/100
