Vintage Cellar review: The 2010 Chardonnay presents subtle notes of spiced apple slices and ripe peaches with hints of freshly baked bread and melon. Light bodied , clean and refreshingly crisp in the mouth, it offers just enough apple and pear flavor concentration, finishing with medium-long persistence. Drink it now to 2014.
My review: This is supposed to be an un-oaked Chardonnay, however, the nose comes across with very strong themes of oak, wood, smoke, vanilla, and even a freshly opened can of tuna. On the palette, it is dry, very simple, and lightly acidic. No complex flavors of anything jump out. It's just a wine that tastes somewhat like lightly acidic and alcoholic tap water. The nose on this Chardonnay was much more interesting than the taste, in my opinion.
I had this wine without food.
