Bell Chambers Chardonnay

So this 2009 California Chardonnay is simple. It's approachable and enjoyable by anyone. It's light and middle of the road, but not in a bad way...
There are subtle oaky notes that are nice, but not over-powering. There are fruit notes of pear anf honey dew melon at first sip, but the wine finishes slightly short.
It makes for a great sip on a hot night (which seems to be almost every night here, lately)
I wouldn't pay over $8/btl in the store and would probably be disappointed if ordered out (somewhere decent), but great as an at home sipper. Don't be ashamed to serve this to your friends; just don't over pay!
