Citrus Melon Peach Chardonnay

Two firsts for me. A nice crisp Chardonnay from Australia with homemade chicken enchiladas. Good way to end the week and start the weekend!

For someone who doesn't care for oaky Chardonnay, this is s good find. It's light and crisp, but still has a little of the grape's inherent buttery flavor.

Good Australian Chardonnay

Cute-ish label. Nice golden hue. I think I might smell citrus. Peach and melon are more of a stretch. Also smells like mountain streams. Flavors are Granny Smith apples and lemon-aide. Hints of maybe brown butter. It’s not very full bodied nor rich like CA Chard. Sorta a simple white. The dryness and tartness make it like able and decent.

Butter, toast, burnt sugar, caramel, pineapple, pear.

2016 vintage.

So good! Crisp and fruity. Not too dry.

Fruity nose. Yup, peach citrus melon. Nice balance long finish.

Crisp, sharp citrus finish - I prefer the smoky oak vanilla to this one - that said, this has a nice, easy finish to sip by itself or pair with a nice meal or cheese.
