The smell is lightly but noticeably oaky. The flavour is well balanced between fruit and a little oak. Perfect on a mild spring afternoon! High good (83.5).

My first experience of this winery. Half bottle $11. Light golden colour. Faint aroma. The flavour is not oaky, but is slightly smoky. Good.
Per back label: Russian River Valley is 5 miles south of winery (located in Headsburg). Cool, foggy mornings and mild summer weather. Wine is balanced with mineral, fig, anise, citrus and smoky notes. Family winery. Abv 13.5%. www.drycreekvineyard.com

Classic butter & oak California chardonnay. Nice but not outstanding.

Poured at a retailer tasting. Nice fruit and oak notes follow through on the well-balanced palate. Nice finish, if a bit on the short side.
