Wine Review: Made from 85% Chardonnay, 15% Viognier. 30%
malolacticfermentation, 30% was aged in French oak barrels. Brilliant yellow
golden color with green hints. The wine is crisp and filled with white peach, pear, green apples flavors, toasty vanilla.
Elegant and luscious wine, well balanced. Crisp and long finish. Pairs well
with creamy soups, pork, veal, vegetables.
My Review: I have always enjoyed Chardonnays, but I am not sure how I feel about particular this wine. It smelled like pears and a almost got hints of sourness. The taste to me was interesting, it was fruity yet rich with some other taste I can't put my finger on. It had a nice about of acid and the aftertaste was pleasant but I wasn't crazy about the flavor
I did not have with food.
