Year: 2010
Variety: Chardonnay
Price: $5.95 -750 mL; $10.95- 1.5 Liter

Vintage Cellar description-  This light straw-colored Oak Vineyards 2010 Chardonnay expresses smokey aromatics with nuances of apple and lemon zest that continue onto the palate where they flourish into citrus, orange blossom, and smoked oak flavors until meeting a crisp, medium finish.

My description: This wine smelled musky, like oak.  It was crisp on the palate, and the oak was very noticeable.  There were some citrus notes present in the taste. I did not have this wine with food.
