2009 Old Coach Road ChardonnayWinery Review: This is a delightfully satisfying wine full of ripe chardonnay fruit characters intertwined with smooth, supple, spicy oak. The palate is full and textured, with a clear definition and long lasting flavors.
My Review: Yellow color, very strong smell. Very dry and mouth puckering at the end. Has a long lasting dry taste. Does have a slight kick from the oak. Not very acidic as I thought it would be. Ok but not my favorite of the day. I tasted this with out food.
