According to the label, there are plenty of apple and pear flavors going around this wine, mixed with tropical fruit. This is very evident on the nose, lot of tropical aromas present, it seems fairly light for a Chard. I pour a little and it's definitely a lighter texture than I would expect for a chard. Its very fresh, and crisp with those light fruit flavors coming into play, very clean tasting. I also get a slightly bitter aftertaste. After my second glass, I conclude that I am not really a fan, I prefer my Chardonnay to be a little more smooth and creamy, this is a little too light and bitter for me.
