Clos DU Bois North Coast 2011 Unoaked Chardonnay, $6.49-$12.99, 86 points, poured a medium brass color, almost straw yellow.
Smells of Cantaloupe, honeysuckle, and honeydew melon were soft and pleasant.
Medium-bodied with good acidity managed flavors reflective of the aromas with hints of sweet apple and pineapple.
Finished a bit tart with a dash of white pepper and an accommodating 13.5% alcohol.
Paired nicely with my Asian cuisine.
Quite a good wine, better than I expected, but considering that it's six years old, I'm sure looking for a more recent vintage.

Would love to taste this side by side with a Fetzer Sundial CH (for poops and giggles).
