- Stickybeack Chardonnay
- Chardonnay
- Russian River Valley/Sonoma County
- California, United States
- 2010
- $12.95
- Wine Enthusiast gave the vintage a score of 85
- Initially this wine smelled very smokey and had a consitent flavor of oat. Apart from the strong smoke flavor, there was also a strong presence of vanilla oak that made the mixture of flavors distasteful. Apart from the smell I also got a hint of nut, most likely almond, and overall the wine was a pretty bland chardonnay. Overall, the wine flavors did not support eachother very well and the smokey flavor was so intoxicating that I found it hard to drink.
- Did not have with any food, but bread might of made a difference or perhaps oatmeal.
