Their review: No company review; no website. But I found this from a user on cellartracker.com: "Pleasantly surprised by this. Didn't expect much and the wine delivered just a little more than my low expectation. Though, if I had tasted it blind I would have said it was more of a Sauvignon Blanc than a Chard. Lots of acid, freshness and citrus... Certainly nothing special and doesn't really have much of a finish - but certainly drinkable and with the acid, would be a decent everyday wine for dinner."
My review: Didn't have much to spend on wine this week so I had to turn to old reliable: Bay Bridge. The chardonnay is very pale and thin. I really don't get much on the nose... it's a cross between a fruit and a tree. The alcohol doesn't show up in the nose as much as one might expect. Definitely acid and slightly boozy taste, but overall very mild and highly drinkable. I wish I had more to say on this one but it's very simple and one-dimensional, but at $3 it holds its value.
