Tasting - Nugan Pie In the Sky Chardonnay 2013

Name: Nugan Pie In the Sky
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: New South Wales
Country: Australia
Vintage: 2013
Price: $15 Sale $7.95

Winery Review: Aromas of poached peach, fig and pineapple with biscuity notes. Tropical, medium bodied style with peach and melon flavours complimented by zesty acids, savoury nuances and a crisp, dry finish. Perfect partner with many styles of modern cuisine including those with an Asian or Mediterranean twist.

My Review: Personally, I don't agree with either the review or the label at all.  I got a slight bit of cat pee in the nose, some burnt grass, herbs, and maybe some of the peach pie way down.  Taste forgave the cat pee a little and had a creamy though sour/acidic caramelized characteristic.  Peach showed up but overshadowed by everything else.  Not enjoyable and the majority of tasting partners agreed save one.


Tasted without food.
