Caught Redhanded :: McLaren Vale Wine Sale
Appearance
A nice yellow, reasonable clarity
Nose or Smell
Initially quite acceptable, subtle fruity aromas, however when swirled vigorously I got a hint of hydrogen sulphide.
Flavour
Light and a little too dry, lacked real depth, didn't get the fruit flavours that I was expecting.
Overall Impression
For a Gisborne Chardonnay, I was disappointed. I paid $12.99 for this wine, down from $17.50 and I believe it to be worth no more than $8.99. Not my kind of Chardonnay, but may suit drinkers at a lower price point
