Tasting - Excelsior Chardonnay

Name: Excelsior Chardonnay
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: Robertson
Country: South Africa
Year: 2011
Price: $7.99
Review: Soft notes of toasted red apple skin and cedar plank enhance the peach and sweet citrus core of this white. Zippy and somewhat prickly with a mouthwatering finish. — (3/1/2012) — 84 (From Wine Enthusiast)

My Review: I thought this was a decent wine. It was very fragrant and the smell reminded me of melon or honeydew. The taste was very crisp with hints of fruit. I did taste a distinct peach flavor to the wine.

Food? I did not have this wine with food.
