Tangley Oaks Mendocino County Lot 12 2019 Chardonnay, $9.99-$19.99, 86 points. was a medium straw-yellow color with a broad clear penumbra.
Smells of sour melon, nutmeg, and orange zest were okay.
This California Chardonnay was medium to full-bodied, round but steely, showed fair acidity and good short-lived flavors of cantaloupe, citrus notes, and an impressive lingering ginger.
Finished fair mostly on the ginger and a big 14.5% alcohol.
Paired fine with my Asian cuisine.
Recommend as a table wine but not as an aperitif.
