Vintage Cellar Tasting - Wine Men of Gotham

  • Name: Wine Men of Gotham
  • Variety: Chardonnay Semillon
  • Region: South Australia
  • Country: Australia
  • Year: 2008
  • Price: $5.95
  • Shop Review: Gotham's 2008 Wine Men of Gotham Chardonnay Semillon is a blend of 80% and 20% Semillon.  It give a moderate intensity of melon, guava, apricot, and butterscotch aromas.  The medium bodied palate provides attractive acidity along with plenty of tropical fruit flavors and a medium-long finish.
  • My Review: A light fruity smell with a bit of a sour tinge.  The flavor was a nice berry with a bit of tartness to it.  I know I'm not supposed to judge based on the label, but this one is just so strange, it kind of deterred me from the wine itself a little, even though the actual wine was pretty good.
  • No food was served.
