A while back, the noodle-legged troubadour teamed with winemaker Sean McKenzie to launch Dreaming Tree , a line of sustainability minded vino that officially places Matthews alongside other celebrity wine-hawkers like Guy Fieri , Francis Ford Coppola , and the dude from Tool.
With the wine all but assuredly becoming a mainstay of pre-show parking lot parties and the fridges of people whose friends buy them last-minute wine gifts at Target, we decided it was time to get our hands on Dave's signature wines. But since we know about as much about wine as we do the words to a deep-cut Lilywhite Sessions track, we enlisted sommelier Mandy Woodward of Los Angeles' Otium to taste and asses them.
Woodward -- an award-winning somm who, for the record, has no real opinions about DMB -- led us through a tasting of Dreaming Tree's five wines, offering up flavor notes along the way.

The problem is mostly with the fact that it's loaded with residual sugars, which completely throw off the aromatics and also generally lead to people's complete misunderstanding of wine.

Flavor notes: Buttered popcorn, oak possibly oak chips , toast, ripe apple. The verdict: The weakest of Dave's white wines, the chardonnay is still a massive step up from the red blend.
