Delicate and elegant. Not buttery or oaky but rather notes of lemon, green apple, honeysuckle, and creme brûlée on the finish. Might pair well with orange ruffy.

Just how Chardonnay should be! True to the varietal and not much influence by the winemaker. Classic here, nothing amazing but just solid wine.

Light, crisp, apple notes. Went to the winery and found this at my local wine shop. Tastes like a Sauvignon Blanc which is probably why I like it. Not dry. Would purchase again.

Light, crisp, and extremely refreshing. Cushions the palate with it's pleasantly satisfying balance from pour to finish.
