Tasting - Jip Jip Rocks Chardonnay

Name: Jip Jip Rocks Chardonnay
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: Padthaway
Country: Australia
Year: 2013
Price: $13.95

Winery Review: Light yellow with a pale straw hue. A classic nose of lemon, fresh stonefruit and melon. The palate is clean and fresh with mineral characters underpinning ripe pineapple and lime flavors. This wine will age beautifully over the next 4-5 years.

My Review: Lemon and apple aromas. A very crisp clean smell. Strong sweetness up front but quickly melts into a clean flavor that has nice light fruits. Very easy wine to drink especially since I've never had an unoaked chardonnay before but it was very good.
