Why not give it a 10? It’s amazing. Light but well structured Sicilian red with volcanic minerality. Pairs with anything. — 5 years ago

9.1

Really nice well-balanced wine from an unlikely place: Utah. Wonderful almond aromatics on Day 1, but on Day 2, they are less apparent and it’s more about a grassy acid experience. — 7 years ago

9.1

Chalky, salty, full-ish (for muscadet), slight effervescence up front. Had it with black pasta with rock shrimp — definitely oriented toward fish / seafood. Very good! — 7 years ago

I don’t know what $1,000 white burgundy tastes like but it can’t be that much better than this one. Wonderfully balanced, a touch of age but not overpowering in oak. Pairs perfectly with roast chicken. — 7 years ago

Within the genre of banana daquiri pina colada suntan lotion California chardonnay, this is a standout. And there is no question, despite the boring label, this is a very good wine! Maybe it’s the measure of success when something is so persuasive that one who usually tends toward other categories finds it extremely good. 👍 — 7 years ago

Extremely well balanced between fruit and mineral. I didn’t think I LOVED Chenin Blanc, but I could drink it in a house, and I could drink it with a mouse, I could drink it with some fish, I could drink it with ANY dish! — 7 years ago
