Solid entry-level Chardonnay that can be purchased for less than $10 at many stores. I don't find this wine as interesting and enjoyable as, for example, the similarly priced Kendall-Jackson Vintner's Reserve, but it's a clean, crisp wine with soft apple and pear fruit and a touch of attractive spiciness. - HK 2011-08-23
