"This medium-bodied Chard leads with healthy oak-based aromas of toast and vanilla, and there's also some warm radiator dust along with baked apple and pear scents. It's a round-styled wine with apple and melon flavors, and the finish yields mostly toast and vanilla. Still alive and kicking courtesy of core acidity."

86 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Montes Reserva Chardonnay" from the vintage 2004 on 01.01.2005 with 86 of 100 points.
"Typically oaky, with aromas of baked apple but also some tropical notes. Not the most pure-fruited wine going, but there's ample lemon curd and almond to go with some citrus. Chunky on the finish, with oodles of oak. Good mouthfeel is a bonus. Imported by T.G.I.C. Importers."

86 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Montes Reserva Chardonnay" from the vintage 2003 on 01.01.2005 with 86 of 100 points.
"Round and sugary, with simple but welcome notes of lemon verbena, apple and vanilla. Sweet like candy corn, but with texture. A floral component adds complexity to what is otherwise as standard a Chard as you'll find."

84 of 100 Points.

"A ripe, almost sweet wine with loads of pineapple and pear aromas and flavors. The mouthfeel is full and easy but a slight tang keeps it from getting too mushy. This veritable pineapple bomb wraps up with tangy, spicy oak notes. Simple, but fun."

88 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Montes Reserva Chardonnay" from the vintage 2002 on 01.01.2003 with 88 of 100 points.
"The nose is light and attractive, with peach and floral accents. The mouth is perfectly smooth, with apple, melon and a hint of flint or steel. On the finish, some cinnamon spice adds character to the baked-apple flavors. With no flaws, this is the epitome of affordable, drinkable Chardonnay. Best Buy."

89 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Montes Reserva Chardonnay" from the vintage 2001 on 01.01.2002 with 89 of 100 points.
"Toasty aromas and nuts sit on top of light, buttery fruit?and that's just the nose. The mouth is full of butter and vanilla, but also apples and pears. This has softness to offer, and then some. A clean, smooth five-minute finish doesn't hurt the package in the least. Best Buy."
