Thorn-Clarke Mount Crawford Chardonnay 2013

Wine: Thorn-Clarke Mount Crawford

Varietal: Chardonnay

Region: Eden Valley

Country: 
Australia

Year: 2013

Price: $10.95

Shop Review: Brilliant yellow. Dried pear, lemon zest, honeysuckle and a hint of vanilla on the fragrant nose. Fleshy and smooth on the palate, offering fresh melon, pear nectar and tangerine flavors and a hint of bitter quinine that adds back-end cut. Closes on a subtle leesy note, showing very good energy and lingering citrus character.

My Review: The smell of this wine was honestly a little bit dirty to me; there was earthiness along with the citrus-y smell. The flavor was very subtle, buttery and a little bit bitter at the same time, and it had a fairly long finish, lingering in my mouth.I tried this wine on its own.

Did not have with food.
