Chardonnay With Little to Pay


Name: Bay Bridge - Chardonnay

Variety: Chardonnay

Country/Region: California, Central Valley

Year/Price: NV, $5

Critique Review: The first taste was tartness, almost like a lemon. It was very crisp and citrus-like, almost like a grapefruit. Overall, a very mellow fruit flavor.

Reference Flavors: Butter, oak, vanilla, apple, pear, melon

My Review: To the eye, light straw complexion, high viscosity, thin. On the nose, citrus, stomach acid scent (unpleasant acid), lemon & apple notes. On the tongue, tart and semi-sweet, fruit notes of apple, lemon, pear. On the finish it's thin and yeasty. There is a honey-vanillay after taste. On the whole, it tastes like fermented sourdough with sweet jelly gone bad. I would not buy this again, $5 gets you $5 worth of a wine bottle
