chardonnay-napa/sonoma

ohhhh...it has been a while.
last wine club was the month of july and it was napa/sonoma chardonnay.
the even got pretty crazy.

we drank 4 offerings and i have this to say...
chardonnay has its fundamental characteristics, you know when you are drinking a chardonnay.
for example the butteriness-which while varies from wine to wine is always there.
chardonnay is crisp and clean, while fruits range from apples and pears to mangoes and pineapples.
oak definitely differs from steel and i prefer oak.
although, i must admit, i am not a fan of chardonnay.
it just isnt for me, but, i do understand its appeal.

i will list the wines we drank later...
