Wine Details
A more Chablis-like expression with a kiss of toasty French oak, showcasing pretty orchard fruit, honeysuckle blossoms and hints of chalky sea shell. On the palate a salted honey character with citrus blossom notes is crisply delineated against a core of Asian pear, mandarins, and banana, quickly turning fresh and zesty with a mouthwatering, chalky acidity.

I’ve been enamored with Oregon’s Rogue Valley for quite some time now, but due to the tiny number of vineyards, and even smaller number of wineries, it has been relatively tough to get my hands on some through the years. Today, it’s back!
Located in Southern Oregon bordering the California state line, the Rogue Valley combines ocean ingress and diverse soil structures with reasonable land prices. Solidly punching above its weight in the value category, Rogue Valley wine offers an even more exceptional value.

Fruity, Lacks Minerality
Very closed nose. Hint of pear, apple, orange, and straw. On the taste, mild acidity, orange, pineapple, pear, apple, and hint of straw. Finish is light straw with an orange and pineapple fade with maybe a hint of lime and mineral. Winemaker concentrated on bringing out the best in the fruit, not the wood additives or fermentation. Yum!

Nice Everyday Drinker
This is more in the chablis style, with a nice crisp acidity. A great counterpoint to the typical what I consider are oaky chards at this price point.

A good Chardonnay
We had this with dinner and it was a good wine. We have had other Chardonnay with Cameron Hughes that we enjoyed more. But keep up the good work.

Tend to drink reds, but....
This is a nice crisp Chardonnay. Nice subtle flavors. I’ve drank this when I normally would choose red and was not disappointed

Love it!
Great wine for the price. Light on the oaky side, pairs nicely with chicken or drinking on a hot summer day.

Aroma Smelled Wonderful
Upon smelling the aromas of this wine I was very pleased. I let it come to a warmer temperature and then I tasted the wine. The strong acidity was too much for me. I tasted a little banana and little stone fruit but did not care for the strong acidity to it. This wine is not for me. This was the first time ordering from CH I really didn't notice a difference from the store bought wines and this one.

Great acid fruit balance
Wonderful chard, just great with salmon, chicken with citrus sauce, or even with cream sauce. Balance just fits great with most any food pairing.
