I am quite the opposite. Huge fan of oak in my Chardonnay. That said, not a fan of bourbon barrel aged wines.

Had a Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc with bracingly high acidity situated in the Touraine appellation. Very much a food wine (or a pallet cleanser). Menthol undertones and characteristic grapefruit.
