Tasting - Chateau Ste. Michelle Chardonnay

Name: Chateau Ste. Michelle Chardonnay 2011
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: Columbia Valley, Washington
Country: U.S.
Year: 2011
Price: $10.00

Winemaker's notes:
My goal with the Columbia Valley Chardonnay is to make a pleasurable, food-friendly Chardonnay. This is a fresh, soft style of Chardonnay with bright apple and sweet citrus fruit character and subtle spice and oak nuances. We blend Chardonnay grapes from vineyards all over Washington's Columbia Valley to make this a complex, interesting wine. The sur lie aging gives it an appealing softness.


My Review: Smelled sweet like the merlot. It tasted pretty sweet and sour. It had a very creamy taste at the end. Tasted like grape and apples. 

I tasted on its own with no food
