One-Point-Six (1.6) Chardonnay 2002 (California)

Price - $11.49 Size - 750 mL - Health Benefits of Wine Tasting held on Saturday April 30, 2005 at the Powers Liquor Mart in Colorado Springs.

This wine contains 1.6 grams of carbohydrates per glass. The color is light gold, lighter than most chardonnay. The wine has a sweet melon nose. The flavor is melony, tart and crisp and not much like chardonnay. Much more of an acidic edge and it contains very little oak, just enough to add some pleasant softness. The finish has a little sour edge which is the only disappointment here. Grade: B
