Ellen5181 Does not like this wine:
June 24, 2021 - I wanted an unoaked and my choices were limited. It’s a bit sweet for me.
Appearance - clear, medium gold
Nose - clean, youthful, medium plus intensity, very fragrant, ripe apple, actually reminds me of being in an apple picking orchard.
Palate - fresh, youthful, medium plus intensity, acidity is medium, a little frizzy on palate , it tastes, enhanced. It feels like they added in a shot of non Oaked Chardonnay “extract” if it exists. Alcohol is listed as 12.5 but feels heavier. It’s a big Cali Chard I guess w/o the oak but this is no Chablis. Finish is medium. There isn’t any finesse to this wine.
Not my style. But drinkable.196 views
