2009 Testerossa Chardonnay Sierra Madre Vineyard Santa Maria Valley, California WB Rating: 90 Alcohol by volume: 14.2% Price at time of purchase: $30.99 (wine.com) Type: Chardonnay Principal varietal(s): Chardonnay Light golden in color, this Chardonnay possesses multi-faceted aromas of apricot, melon, and tropical fruits on top of vanilla, dark toast, and lees. Very ripe and rich in the nose, yet steely crisp and mineral-laden in the mouth. I'm not sure all the components here have come together perfectly, but it's still a pretty compelling and fun Chardonnay to drink. - HK 2013-12-14 [Back] |
