Tasting-- Decoy Chardonnay

Name: Decoy Chardonnay
Variety: 100% Chardonnay
Region: California
Country: USA
Year: 2012
Price: $28.00

Winery review: "Enticing citrus zest, orange blossom and guava aromas with hints of banana cream pie and spicy oak. The palate is soft and velvety offering vibrant citrus flavors intermingled with rich tropical fruit. Excellent acidity adds length and brightness to a satisfying finish."

My review: A decent chardonnay! The bouquet has a distinct sweet smell reminiscent of bananas which was unique! The color was rather bland. This wine tasted well for a chardonnay. The Decoy Chardonnay had loads of tropical fruit flavors that linger on your tongue. I noticed a spicy, oaky element to this wine. This is a highly acidic wine, but overall pretty tasty!
