This primarily barrel-fermented and barrel-aged Chardonnay offers toasty oak on the nose and a palate rounded out by expressive fruit. Soft and friendly, it has a lingering finish but is not overly complex. Pair wth game birds and seafood.

This straightforward wine is crisp and refreshing. The nose is charming, with aromas of apples and lemon. Light on the tongue, it shows a pure fruit expression unencumbered by excessive oak or butter flavors. Try with grilled seafood dishes.

An appealing nose of honey, apricot and spice is followed by an unctuous wave of honey, vanilla and orange peel flavors here. Sweet but intriguing, with balanced complexity.

Simple but cheerful flavors of cherry and berry lead this blend from Virginia. Soft in structure and lacking some dimension, the wine is nonetheless appealing for its bright character.

A solid effort, this wine, named after a law requiring colonists to plant vineyards, boasts aromas of tropical fruit and grilled nuts, toasty, citrusy flavors and a lemon-pineapple finish.

Smells oaky at first, with scents of buttered toast, vanilla and grilled nuts leading the way, then shows more fruit on the palate, blending pear, orange and melon flavors. Citrus notes linger on the finish.

A rich, toasty nose suggests depth and dimension in the glass, and on the palate, this 100% French oak-fermented Chard delivers most of what it adver tises. Good fruit body and nice flavors of creamy spice. Lacks finish but good overall. Will pair well with grilled seafood and summer salads.

A jammy, plummy character with a touch of spice make this enjoyable on its own or paired with hearty dishes like ravioli or sausage. Soft but substantial, the wine has a smoky, lingering finish.

This wine is clean and well made, with a smooth mouthfeel. Oaky butter and vanilla aromas combine with watery flavors of pear and popcorn.

Round and full, this wine has moderate acidity that keeps it from cloying and white fruit flavors that are sweet but not up to the richness of most dessert wines. A barnyard note plays a minor role, detracting from the overall sweetness.
