20150414_Tasting of entry level Chardonnay: Jacob's Creek Chardonnay 2014

Variety: 100% Chardonnay
Country of origin: Australia
Wine appellation: South Eastern Australia
Vintage: 2014
Alcohol content: 12.5.%
Color: light yellow
Bouquet: green melon, vanilla, slightly smokey aroma
Taste: medium body, similar to the nose the major fruit profile comes from green melon accompanied by vanilla and light toast, medium to longer finish
Overall score: 3.5+7+10+6+6.6=83
Price: CZK 100 on special (1+1)
Stopper: screw cap
At this point the wine is very young, the oak overpowers the fruit, however the wine will for sure as one of the few bottles tasted in this flight improve over 2-3 years.
