Winery Review:
A very nice value Chardonnay that comfortable over-delivers vs. its modest price tag. No oak here, just bushels of clean, crisp, Chardonnay apple and stone fruit with a hint of caramelized pineapple. Juicy and clean, this is a mid-weight white that's just perfect for parties or weeknight sipping.
My Review:
This wine definitely smelled like some sort of muted grapefruit. It had a weird heavy smell at the beginning - that heavy smell wasn't anything specific, but that smell muted the rest of the nose. You can also smell the heat on the end of the sniff with a touch of vanilla. One tasted, the sour smell was the only thing that stuck out. It tasted like a sour bath towel that you left in your bathroom for a while. It was super tarte and dry, and over all I did not find this wine to be enjoyable. This was tasted without food.
