Morro Bay (White Oak Estates Chardonnay)


Name: Morro Bay
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: California
Country: United States
Year: 2009
Price: $5.95


Winery review:  Vanilla cream soda nose with a slice of fresh cut pineapple.  Full body, tropical fruit, spice and pleasing vanilla oak note linger in the finish.  Sweet flavor on the palate is from sur-lie aging the wine on the primary yeast lees for 7 months.  A versatile style of wine that can be served chilled with fine cuisine or a glass with friends.  Certified Green by Lodi Rules Sustainable Winegrowers.


My review:  Smelled sweet and I could not detect any heat to it.  Very dry.  Tasted very earthy but not tannic.  Had a little heat to the aftertaste.



I tasted this on its own without food.
