Shop review: Gotham’s 2008 Wine Men of Gotham Chardonnay
Semillon is a blend of 80% Chardonnay and 20% Semillon. It gives a moderate
intensity of melon, guava, apricot and butterscotch aromas. The medium bodied
palate provides attractive acidity along with plenty of tropical fruit flavors
and a medium-long finish (Vintage Cellar).
My review: When smelling the Wine Men of Gotham Chardonnay
Semillon, the melon scent immediately jumps out. The taste of it was very
similar as well. The melon was definitely prominent, however it wasn’t as sweet
as I was expecting it to be from the scent. What I found interesting about it
is that I generally feel like wines that aren’t sweet taste more alcoholic,
however, this wine wasn’t like that. It had a wonderful smooth finish to it,
which ended the experience well.
