Watson ready!
Another reason why I feel it nessicary to review this bottle of wine was because when I bought it, I got ID'ed! That hasn't happened in a good while, so I'm taking it as a sign from the wine gods to start with this one!
Sampling is fun!
From the Southeastern region of Australia, Banrock Station's , unoaked (unwoodened) Chardonnay offers an ok bang for your buck. I was greeted with a smooth and sweet, aroma of peaches, and grapes (duh). After letting the wine breath for a bit, my taste buds puckered up for an intial lively punch of strong citrus notes combine with a slight tartness. Banrock, offers a smooth light bodied wine and if you don't like your wine to linger, then this would be a good choice for you. There is very little finishing flavour, but what ever finish it has, there are definate citrus ends!
All and all I can't really see myself buying this wine again, It offers little flavor complexity, (all i could taste was grapefruit) and its a little too dry for my liking. Having said that, it might end up being your cup of tea, or glass of wine. Happy Tasting!
