Torrent Bay (Chardonnay)


Name: Torrent Bay
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: ??
Country: New Zealand
Year: 2009
Price: $6.95


Winery review: Fleshy, melony aromas cuddle some fresh oak.  The palate has decent acidity so there's freshness along with weight, resiny oak flavors, lemon and green apple.


My review:  Smells like an odd combination of processed lunch meat, beer, and oak.  Tastes very smooth and is not tannic.  Hints of melon and a strong oak finish.



I tasted this on its own without food.
