Winery: Bonterra Vinyards
Wine: Chardonnay
Retail: $12.49
Description: "An initial impression of rich, buttery cream quickly turns to aromas of honey and lightly toasted almonds, followed quickly by tropical aromas of pineapple and citrusy lemon. The wine is refreshing on the palate with a vibrant tartness and lemon zest that is absolutely Bonterra Chardonnay."
Ratings: n/a.
Review: 86. Here the description fits the wine well. Starts with an applely nose. The first impressions when tasted is creamy with slight butter flavors and pear which don't develop until late in the midpallet to strong citric tropical friut flavors- I can see the lemon but not the pineapple, I'd say rather, oh green grapes, the kind from your local grocery? I hope that isn't a tautology. The finish follows quickly but is clean. Would be rated higher if there was a bit more complexity. Medium body.
