Noble Vines '446' San Bernabe, Monterey 2013 Chardonnay, $11.89-$13.99, 87 points, poured a medium yellow/gold color clearing at the glass shallows.
Soft aromas of orange-melons with a hint of lemon was pleasant.
Crisp medium-bodied Chardonnay with good acidity delivered a restrained oak base flavor profile garnished with Chardonnay-specific grape, a hint of cantaloupe, and subtle pineapple.
Finished long on kiwi, 14.5% warm alcohol inspirited white pepper, and a hint of dragon fruit.
Paired fine with my BLT.

The tropical elements sound appealing.
ReplyDeleteVG: It was okay, and for around ten bucks . . .
