"Gold color. Rich aromas and flavors of golden apple, ripe pear, butter, and mineral with a bright, dry medium-to-full body and a seamless, complex, medium-length finish with notes of white pineapple, honeydew, and toasted sesame with no tannins and light oak. Juicy white pineapple, pear and apple are given a generous, but deftly balanced treatment of fine grained French oak."

"Medium-intense notes of golden apple skin, lime peel and wild yellow flowers are graced by a hint of gingery spice. The medium-weight palate is slightly round and creamy, but not overly so, with a generous wood-grilled-apple flavor that lingers on the toasty finish. - Lauren Buzzeo"

"The 2017 Le Jade Chardonnay is another good value. Orchard fruits, some melon, and pineapple notes all flow to a fresh, clean, nicely balanced Chardonnay that's well worth the price."

"From the Les Costières de Pomerols cooperative, this is silky in texture and well upholstered with oak flavor, but fruit wins out in the end, clean, lemony and spicy."

"This delightful Chardonnay has structure and personality. The wine entices the nose with apple pie, clove baking spice, dried papaya and baked pear aromas. Flavors of grilled orange slice and quince join on the palate that hosts a healthy streak of acidity while accentuating the fruit core. — Reggie Solomon"
