This is made using American Oak barrels. Medium golden in color, clear and bright. The nose has char, some lemon, dill and vanilla. Medium bodied. On the palate, this seems a bit disjointed. Hopefully it comes together with some age. Flavors of char, and a bit weedy, the fruit seems more to the back but lemon comes out on the finish. Probably better with food. Big flavors would help.
This is Unoaked Chardonnay from the northeast corner of Ohio along Lake Erie. Light golden in color, clear and bright. The nose is clean with slight green apples with a bit of wild herbs.

Very refreshing and better if served cold to bring out m
As the name says, this is an unoaked Chardonnay from the Finger Lakes region of New York. This is a cooler climate region and the resulting wine will be a great alternative for those oakaphobes or people just looking for something a bit different. Light golden in color, some green hues, clear and bright. The nose is clean with slight grapefruits, some minerality and a bit of "wet rocks". Medium bodied.
