About Me

Hi! I'm Christina, and I am a recent graduate from Virginia Tech! I'm in Northern VA now pursuing a degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. I'd like to continue what I learned from the Geography of Wine class I took in Spring of 2012, so I'll be posting about different wines and wine events. I would be very grateful for suggestions, and I'm open to expanding my posts to beer and liquor as well!

Tasting - Oak Vineyards Chardonnay


Name: Oak Vineyards Chardonnay

Variety: Chardonnay
Region: Napa Valley
Country: United States
Year: 2010
Price: $5.95 (750mL); $10.95 (1.5L)
Shop Review: This light straw-colored Oak Vineyards 2010 Chardonnay expresses smoky aromatics with nuances of apple and lemon zest that continue onto the palate where they flourish into citrus, orange blossom, and smoked oak flavors until meeting a crisp, medium finish.
My Review:  On this nose, this Chardonnay is appley with hints of light fruits.  It is also slightly floral smelling.  Taste-wise it is very smoky and buttery with a smooth finish.

I had this wine alone without any food.
