Wine Tasting: Wine Men of Gotham Chardonnay Semillon

Name:  Wine Men of Gotham
Variety: 80% Chardonnay, 20% Semillon

Country: Australia
Year: 2008
Price: $8

Shop review: 
Chardonnay Semillon is a blend of 80% Chardonnay and 20% Semillon. It gives a moderate intensity of melon, guava, apricot and butterscotch aromas. The medium bodied palate provides attractive acidity along with plenty of tropical fruit flavors and a medium-long finish.

My review:  This wine smelled much fruitier than the Saugvignon Blanc we just tasted, with a strong lime and cantaloupe smell. It was very lacking in flavor however, with only hints of some some citrus. It was very light and crisp, but not something I would order again, because it had a boring flavor.
