Tapiz Chardonnay
Chardonnay
$15 for the 2007 on Wine-searcher. $19 for the 2008.

Note: This is a  low-range “classic” wine made solely with one varietal, made for everyday drinking. I tasted it during a degustation at the actual Tapiz restaurant, so I was not able to see any bottles and mark down specifics, like year. It is probably the 2008 wines.

Same light, boring color as the Tapiz Sauvignon Blanc. Just pure white.

Young, fruity aroma, but with a bit of earthiness. There are some overtones of plums or especially peaches in there. It’s quite nice and rather strong for a Chardonnay.

Taste is very fruity, but it quickly turns unpleasant and bitter. Feels very young, with very little body and length. Very bitter, immature, with little complexity.

Overall Score: 2.0/5.0
