    On the reserved side, this trim wine has subtle fruit and vanilla aromas, mild apple and butter flavors and a good balance between acidity and ripeness. It's a good value and a great choice for a non-showy wine.

  • 201587 pts

    A touch of smoke and walnut in the aroma make this wine stand out, while apple and butter flavors fill in the palate. It's medium-bodied, dry and attractive in an Old World, slightly austere style.

  • 201282 pts

    A waxy, sour-leaning Chardonnay that's tart in a teeth-clenching way though it might mellow in time with air.

  • 201086 pts

    Packaged in an attractive sunflower-adorned screwcap bottle, this Chardonnay made from organic grapes is light, bright and straightforward—tasting of lemon, lime and kiwi—with barely any oak influence.
