Clos Du Bois
California Chardonnay
California, USA
Straw color with a floral scent. On first taste its overly sweet, sort of candy like. Two more sips and it reveals pear, apple and butter. Half way through the 2nd glass the oak comes out behind all the citrus flavors. Overall, an enjoyable California wine. 13.5% abv .

Ripe fruit aromas with notes of oak and spice. On the palate stone fruit flavors with lemon citrus zest adding a sweet creamy tone. Medium finish, good acidity ending with fruit and oaky mineral character. Nice value. Tasting Sample.

Golden in color with a yellow tint.
Nose of lemons, citrus, green apples, grapefruits, bitter herbs, green pepper, light vanilla, wood, spices and white pepper.
Medium to full bodied, and buttery, with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with citrus, grapefruits, cream, limes, green apples, bitter vegetables, herbs, light vanilla and wood.
Short finish with bitter almonds.
A drinkable Chardonnay from California. Simple and a little bitter on the ending. Not fully balanced, oaky and watery. Not for me. A good food wine, though.
I Paired it with scallops.
13.5% alcohol by volume.
