Tasting - Wine Men of Gotham Chardonnay Semillon

Name: Wine Men of Gotham Chardonnay Semillon
Variety: 80% Chardonnay and 20% Semillon
Region: South Australia
Country: Australia
Year: 2008
Price: $5.95 (Vintage Cellar), $8 (Average)

Critic Review:  "It gives a moderate intensity of melon, guava, apricot and butterscotch aromas. The medium bodied palate provides attractive acidity along with plenty of tropical fruit flavors and a medium-long finish."

My Review:  Gives off the aroma of various tropical fruits, such as melons.  Easy to drink and fairly dry.  Slightly tart and bitter, which proves the acidity of the wine.  A hint of sweetness and fruitiness, but still not too sweet, which is a good thing in my opinion.  Gives a little bit of a punch; I would drink this wine again.

I tasted this wine without food.
