I picked one of these up yesterday wanting to try something new but my girlfriend is afraid she may not like it. She loves oak so I plan to lightly oak with 1.5 light toast French oak spirals.

What more common grapes would you compare this kit to?

Trying to decide if I need to exchange it for another boring California Chardonnay.

Thanks!
 
Torrontés Riojano is the most aromatic of the three, with aromas reminiscent of Muscat and Gewürtztraminer wines. From Wikipedia
just started a 2012 LE kit from LHBS, too good a deal to pass up
not planning to oak mine at all
