2009 Fat Cat California Chardonnay
12.5% alc., pH 3.34, TA 0.62, Glucose/ Fructose 8.47 g/L, $10. · Very shy nose with faint aromas of green apples, pears, and oak vanillin. An easy drinker with pleasant and confected flavors of pears, toffee, green apple candy, and spice. A respectable “chick” quaff, especially when chilled, that has low alcohol and will please the crowd of wine drinkers who like residual sugar in their Chardonnay. Not for connoisseurs. Decent. Reviewed May 15, 2011
Winery: Fat Cat Cellars
