Tasting - Wine Men of Gotham Chardonnay/Semillon

Variety - 80% Chardonnay + 20% Semillon
Region - South Australia
Country - Australia
Year - 2008
Price - $5.95

Shop review - Gotham's 2008 Wine Men of Gotham Chardonnay Semillon is a blend of 80% Chardonnay and 20% Semillon. It gives a moderate intensity of melon, guava, apricot and butterscotch aromas. The medium bodied palate provides attractive acidity along with plenty of tropical fruit flavors and a medium-long finish.

My Review - The wine men was hard to tell what the scent was, it mainly tasted like "Chardonnay" which to me is a distinct flavor. IT was a bit acidic. The wine has a bit of a buttery taste with fruit tones. Very smooth sip. While I thought the wine was decent the aftertaste definitely lingered and was good. Overall it was a very sweet wine but not overbearing.

I tasted this on its own with no food.
