Molly Morgan Chardonnay 2008

Made by Molly Morgan in Australia (region: Hunter Valley) .

A dry, still, white wine with 13.5% alcohol tasted on 13th May 2009.

Grape: Chardonnay

Quality: Good

Value: Above Average

Cost: Usually between $20.00 - $20.00.

Looks: Nice bright pale gold, with a medium looking body or lighter

Smells: Not too much fruit on the nose, but some straw and cheddar cheese

Feels: Light to medium bodied

Tastes: This wine makes me smile. Good Hunter Chardonnay has this cheesy, straw farmy character that reminds me of years gone by. So does this one, but matched with some nice lifting acidity to keep it fresh and a good lingering finish. A nod to the past and a style worth drinking at this price.
