Tasting - Thorn Clarke Chardonnay


Name: Thorne-Clarke
Variety: Chardonnay 
Year: 2015
Region: Barossa Valley
Country: Australia
Price: $10
Review: The palate is medium to full bodied and exhibits predominantly peach and nectarine flavors, with cloves and cardamom evident from the use of a small amount of French oak. The wine finishes full and long with a nice balance of sweet fruit and creaminess.

My Review: A far bolder wine than expected, this wine is delightfully aromatic, tasting extraordinarily like it was picked off the tree at an orchard. I almost bought this wine, in fact, but the college budget needs the extraordinary to fit my pocket.
