at 82 points that is at the very end of the low spectrum. Perhaps calibrate with a Russian River Chardonnay or a Napa Chardonnay
Agree that it is not as good as the RRV Chardonnay they were serving in Polaris previously. At the same time, just like movie critics, one should not try wine simply based on number of points or review profiles. There are plenty of undrinkable wines out there, and this is not one of them. Concurrently, if you are looking for a big, buttery California chard, this is not one of them.
