Medium lemon color with aromas of stone and citrus fruits and sweet nutty notes, adding a leesy touch. On the palate flavors of apple, melon and pear with lemon citrus, vanilla and toasty oak, slight creamy texture. Medium+ finish, lively acidity, ending with fruit, nuts, toasty oak and savory lemon Chablis character.

Had this after a 2020 Rully. Exactly what was needed. Lifted citrusy good times.

$33 Medium nose. Notes of honeydew melon, lime peel, peach, hint of baking spice and caramel. Very well balanced. Low alcohol, low tannins and low acid. Medium body. Smooth and buttery. Off-dry. Oak shines through. Notes of pear, apple, starfruit, lemon peel, and lime peel on the tongue. This is a pleasant, well balanced chardonay, with a clean oak finish. The oak is not overpowering, which is a relief considering it's a CA chardonnay. Worth it's price and worth another drink.
