Love Chardonnay, have had all of these except the Souverain. Kendall Jackson Reserve Series, Chateau St Michelle Indian wells, X Winery, Bookster all very good Chards under $15. www.winelx.com

Great episode. Love the “subtle part” though largely commenting on this for the sole purpose of reference purpose only.

qotd: dont usually spend money on chard’s. but last one i got i can remember that i liked under $15 was the Jean Paul Brun ‘Terre Dorres’ Beaujolais Blanc.
So long as you keep rewuesting we send in requests Gary, i’ll keep giving you mine.
How about doing a vin jaune episode, or a charbono tasting episode?

Finally! I have a reference point between GV’s and my palate.

I have a 05 Souverain here and I thought the oak was a little less subtle on the nose than GV thought. Matter of fact for me I knew it was a oak monster right from the sniffy sniff. I totally agree on the lingering oak taste though.

QOTD: State side I’d have to go with Bogle. While French Chardonnay I’ll go with Red Bicyclette & Fat Bastard.

w00t! first ‘oak monster’ reference!!!

I’d have to go look but I think the first ‘thunder’ reference was back in the 120s or 130s.

It’s really fun to start from the beginning and see the show evolve into what it is today.

J. Lohr is really the only chardoney I can stand or maybe a KJ reserve… But I am more into the loure valley Sancerre’s.
