Photo:
Name: Avery Quinn Chardonnay
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: California
Country: United States
Year: 2011
Price: $6.95
Shop/wine critic/winery: Vintage Wine Cellar/ Amanda/ The 2011 vintage marks a return to form for this great value Chardonnay. The aromas feature creamy, mellow, golden apple, pineapple, fresh butter and a touch of vanilla. Then rich, ripe, flavors of yellow pear, pineapple, fresh apple, cream and buttered toast swell up and fill your mouth before a juicy, apple and caramel inflected finish makes your mouth water.
Your Review: This white floral wine had the usual characteristics of sweet and thick texture. It tasted like a citrus lime with scents of orange, pears, and apples. This was a great enjoyable start to the wine tasting, and at the end of this tasting this was my first purchase at the vintage wine cellar for the second weekly dinner/food pairing.
