Wine Enthusiast gives this classy chardonnay a rating of 88 and Wine Spectator rates this vintage an 87. On a citrus scale this chard gets a, "Holy Shit! I taste lemons!" Creamy, oh is it fucking creamy! Oak is very subtle, and if you are like me, this is a good thing. Over oaked chards suck ass, the wine loses some of the fruit notes. My only complaint is the acid burn on the finish. Worth the $15 I gave for the Sonoma County Chardonnay.
Repeat offender: I'd drink it again
Alcohol: 14.2%
Drank with: Nothing
