Tasting- Torrent Bay Chardonnay



Name: Torrent Bay Chardonnay
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: South Island
Country: New Zealand
Year: 2009
Price: $6.95

Wine Critic Review: "Fleshy, melony aromas cuddle some fresh oak. The palate has decent acidity so there’s freshness along with weight, resiny oakflavors, lemon and green apple."

My Review: This wine smelled like cat pee as well as a moldy/wetneess/moisture smell was present. The taste was not bad, there were some hints of citrus fruits present and it did linger on my palate for an okay aftertaste. Another light bodied wine that was a little better than the Spanish Vines I had tried right before this wine.

This wine was not tried with food.
