Loving Unoaked Chardonnay

This is becoming one of my favorite types of Chardonnay this summer.  I am really liking this 2010 Millbrook Vineyards Unoaked Chardonnay, a lot!  This 25th Anniversary wine is 100% New York Chardonnay that was harvested between September 17 and 26 at 22.3 brix.

On the nose I got aromas of pear and cantaloupe melon that were crisp and fresh.  On the palate the hints of melon and citrus gave way to crisp apple and a creamy finish. The wine was nicely balanced.

The wine is $16 and is available in their tasting room.  A great summer wine!
