I had one of their Fume Blancs some time ago and I seem to remember not liking it because of prominent oak flavors, so I imagine you can expect plenty of wood in their chardonnay.

Steve Tanzer had this to say: "Aromas of honey, fruit salad and spicy oak. Thick and ripe in the mouth; on the sweet side but boasts plenty of palate presence. Fruit notes of pineapple, lemon and guava jelly. Holds its shape nicely on the lingering aftertaste. This will never be mistaken for Burgundy, but it very satisfying chardonnay. 88 points."

The wineaccess website also had a review from the Beverage Tasting Institute, whatever that is, which mentioned oak twice in a three or four line review.
