Tim Atkins review: 91 - "This unoaked Agrelo blend combines mostly Sauvignon Blanc with lesser amounts of Chardonnay and Viognier. White peach, lemon and grapefruit flavours combine to good effect here with a refreshing, limestone-like tang. 2017-19"
My review: I couldn't get over the smell of this wine. It was kind of unpleasant, like something old and musty... like walking into one of those academic buildings on the Ag quad. It has that nutty, buttery flavor you come to expect from Chardonnay, with a light body and touch of fruitiness. This wine was just weird. I wouldn't try it again.
I tasted this wine without food.
