Reviews and Ratings

Lori Kilmartin WSET3 - WSET3 Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Typical aromas for a chardonnay - green apple and stone fruits. Creamy mouthfeel with a touch of acidity at the end. Medium body and medium finish. A good value wine at this price point. Tasted Oct. 2/2016
Nick Onischuk - Accredited Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

The Robert Mondavi Winery Private Selection Chardonnay 2015 features nice sweet green apple, and tropical fresh fruit. On the palate, nice medium to long finish of green apple. Great value! Tasted October 2016 (89/100)
Craig Kuziemsky rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Aroma has light notes of green apple and pear. The palate adds some tropical fruit and brings out the apple flavor more boldly.
Pamela Chiles rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Plush and creamy with tropical, butterscotch, toasty vanilla, apple and pear aromas and flavours. Lingering spice and green apple finish. Nice with seared scallops.
Jon Steeves - Sommelier rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Great value and a great pairing with festive season favourites such as roasted turkey, beer can chicken, and pulled pibil chicken or Pork tacos. Enjoy!
Monique Sosa - Accredited Sommelier rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Looking for a budget-conscious crowd-pleasing Turkey wine? You found one! This Chardonnay shows mild orchard fruit and butterscotch aromas. The palate is flavorful showing rich notes of baked apple, spice, cedar and butterscotch. Enjoy this mouthwatering, medium bodied chard with Thanksgiving turkey, stuffing, roasted potatoes, roasted yams... etc. Tasted Oct 2016. @sommsosa | bespoketastings.ca
