Shop review: A vibrant Chardonnay from vineyards in cooler climates of California. Chardonnay is well known for its characteristic fresh apple fruit aromas and rounded, rich flavors. Weather during the 2011 harvest provided ideal growing conditions for lush, yet perfectly balanced fruit.
My review: I was dissapointed when this didn't taste like tea and lemonade; in fact, it was very similar to the first Chardonnay we tasted today. There was some hints of mango and pineapple on the nose, but again the flavor was pretty lacking. I was able to pick up some rotting apple, but there was some alcohol taste as well. The wine was crisp and light, but also fairly dry. Again, I'm not a fan of Chardonnay, and would probably not try this again.
