| Verdict | A dry, light-bodied alcohol-removed Chardonnay with bright citrus, a supple buttery middle, and a subtle saline edge. Mouthwatering acidity gives definition… | Golden Delicious apple and white peach lead a thin, fresh, off-dry Chardonnay. Smooth in the mouth, light on the close, and short of weight in the middle. |

| Likeness | — | The apple and white peach aromatics fit a familiar Chardonnay profile. The thin palate offers limited structural weight, so the vinous impression is stronger on the nose than in the mouth. |
