Oxford Landing Chardonnay 2002
Made by Yalumba in Australia.
A dry, still, white wine with 12.5% alcohol tasted on 27th Feb 2005.
Grape: Chardonnay
Quality: Below Par
Value: Okay
Cost: Usually between $6.99 - $9.99.
Looks: Pale yellow/gold, with a medium body.
Smells: Full vanilla, pineapple and banana tones.
Feels: Light-medium.
Tastes: Banana and a smidge of pineapple acid, followed by some mellow tinned peaches. A line of vanilla wood that seems to sit out to the side and not integrate well. A dry earth tone on the finish makes the long length not really a plus.
Simple is as simple does.
Not really a winner.
Possible retailers: Theo's, BWS, Woolworths Liquor, Liquorland, First Estate.
