Tasting: Avery Quinn Chardonnay

Name: Avery Quinn Chardonnay
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: California
Country: United States
Year: 2011
Price: $6.95


 Vintage Wine Cellar (Amanda): "The 2011 vintage marks a return to form for this great value Chardonnay. The aromas feature creamy, mellow, golden apple, pineapple, fresh butter and a touch of vanilla. Then rich, ripe, flavors of yellow pear, pineapple, fresh apple, cream and buttered toast swell up and fill your mouth before a juicy, apple and caramel inflected finish makes your mouth water."


My Review: I enjoyed this white Chardonnay and found it very easy to drink and fun to sip. The Chardonnay had a floral nose that had a fruity pineapple smell. The aroma was strong and full and really helped open up the taste on the palate. The Avery Quinn had a sweet, floral taste of citrus, pear, and pineapple. It had a smooth and creamy texture which I really enjoyed immensely . The ABV of the Chardonnay was about 13.5% which was a little above average for Chardonnays. Overall this was a very good Chardonnay.
