Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
With citrus and floral flavors in addition to Chard’s usual pears and apples, this wine might be confused for a Pinot Grigio or even a leaner style of Viognier. However you slice it, it’s a dry, crisp, easy sipper, and a good buy at this price.

This is soft in tannins, crisp in acids, and tastes sweet and forward in jammy cherry, blackberry and chocolate flavors.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Sweet and candied, with Life Saver flavors of cherries and blackberries. Lots of acidity, too. Pretty standard, but the price is okay.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Gets the job done with modest tangerine, pineapple and cream flavors. Nice and crisp and dry, but it’s pretty thin.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Not the richest wine in history, but fruity enough and dry, this basic Chardonnay has a tease of citrus fruit and vanilla cream. It’s perfectly okay for that next big party where no one’s over-critical.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This jammy, slightly sweet Cabernet has enough fruity flavors to satisfy. It brims with fruitstand blackberries, cherries and plums, and has a soft texture.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
As soft and sweet as a pastry dessert, with chocolate, raspberry and vanilla flavors, complete with the smoky tart crust. A simple sipper for ordinary fare.
