Country: Australia
Year: 2008

Winery Review: Gotham’s 2008 Wine Men of Gotham Chardonnay Semillon is a blend of 80% Chardonnay and 20% Semillon. 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: This chardonnay was tingly and fresh. I found that the Chardonnay stood out more than the Semillon, most likely because I've had a lot of Chardonnay but so far no Semillon and so I wouldn't know what Semillon tastes like. I tasted the melon and apricot, but I couldn't pick out any other particular flavors in the delightful, fruity mix. It was somewhat dry and the finish was just long enough, in my opinion. Overall, I enjoyed it a lot.
I did not taste this with food.
