A bit creamy , kinda light (as opposed to full), vanilla forward , with some stone fruits after ... not a memorable Chardonnay , especially for $15

It has a tiny bit of acidity, but otherwise is very mild.

Enjoyed with Grilled Salmon, Garden Salad, Brussel Sprouts, & French Baguette -- Rich and creamy, lightly sweet at first taste. Smells slightly of meringue when swirled.
