The Vintage Cellar's Review: "Medium-bodied wine with notes of crisp apple and ripe citrus fruit with a hint of cinnamon spice. Delicious complement to grilled chicken, lighter pasta dishes or mild cheeses."
My Review: The nose on this wine was very smooth and underwhelming, with hints of pear. I was surprised by the mild texture on the palate. Usually, the first word I use to describe a Chardonnay is "bile," but this wine from Canyon Road was very smooth and sweet. The acidity was so minimal that the wine had an almost flat feel to it. It finished strong, however, but not harsh, and left a pleasant tingly sensation on the back of the tongue.
This wine was tasted without food.
