Tasting - Lazzaro Chardonnay


Name: Lazzaro
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2010
Price: $6.95

Winery Review:   Opens with mellow peach and melon aromas and some oak. The palate is round, creamy and full. Tastes of spiced, dried apple with a stalky, pithy accent.

My review:  This wine was just "OK."  It had a nice golden yellow color.  On the nose there was a strong peachy smell.  When I tasted the wine the best part was the texture.  It was very full bodied and creamy.  The "Oak Monster" was not present in the Chardonnay.  The taste was very plain and did not have a very strong buttery taste that some Chardonnay's have.  I would drink it again but I wouldn't want to pay for it.

I tasted this on its own with no food.
