Tasting - California Roots Chardonnay

 

Name: California Roots Chardonnay

Variety: 100% Chardonnay

Region: Napa & Lodi, California

Country: USA

Year: 2021

Price: $5.00


Winery Review: A lighter style of Chard, with vanilla and citrus nose. Light citrus, tropical fruit flavors on the palate, with riper fruit showing as it opens up. Tropical fruit finish. - (J.S. 89/100)

Wine Folly: I can taste the buttery and vanilla hints as explained in the book on pg. 96. I also can taste the similarities between this and the other California Chardonnay that I tried in week 2.  


My Review: Smell of fruit skins and tastes buttery with bitter notes. This wine is crisp and slightly dry, and hints of sour citrus. Not a bad wine, however very similar to the other California Chardonnay.

Name: Dionysos Fileri  Variety: Moschofilero  Region: Peloponnese   Country: Greece   Year: 2021  Price: $12.00  Winery Review:   An astringent, crisp wine which pairs well with fish. Better than many higher priced Assyrtios. - (C.B 4/5).   Wine Folly:  I agree with wine folly primary flavors of Moschofilero. The book says potpourri, honeydew, pink grapefruit, lemon, and almond.    My Review: Smells like crisp green apple, citric, and grassy hay. Tastes citrusy, light body, with apple notes. Warm smooth, light body, a very refreshing wine. With a sour aftertaste. Good wine would recommend.
