Oaky aroma- delightful! Dry taste all the way through, but only the slightest of tannins, which is a pleasant surprise for a dry red at this price point. Mild to moderate acid. A great wine for spring and summer. — 7 years ago

Moderate tannins, very dry. No CO2. Notable lack of depth. No heavy aftertaste so that's good at least. — 10 years ago

Complex flavors, more than expected for a chardonnay. First taste of honey, but if I was blind, I might have thought this was a cab based on the mid taste. A unique umami to the aftertaste. — 10 years ago

Smoky smell that can be a tad off-putting. Surprisingly, very fruity and sweet when first hitting the palate. Very light tannins. Light acidity. No unpleasant aftertaste. A little bit like grape juice overall. I enjoy this — 7 years ago

Nice carbonation. But harsh aftertaste, like a grapefruit that lingers. Smells like a wet sponge. — 10 years ago

Fruitier than expected. Mild tannins. Somewhat herbal beginning and buttery finish. Overall very easy to drink. Worthy of a repeat if I have the money

Fruity but drier than expected. More acid than I typically encounter with pinot noirs. Easy to drink midshelf wine-but I don't think I would finish the bottle in one sitting — 9 years ago

Very dry, minimum tannins, no carbonation. Shihein thinks there's moderate acidity. Heavy minerals, no cheap aftertaste. Grows on you through the meal. — 10 years ago
