Tasting - "Wine Men of Gotham Chard. Semillon"

NameWine Men of Gotham Chard. Semillon
Variety80% Chardonnay, 20% Semillon
Region: N/A
Country: Australia
Year: 2008
Price: $7.95

Winery Review: "Chardonnary Semillon is a blend of 80% Chardonnay and 20% Semillon. It gives 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:  Floral nose with hints of apple and melon, it was actually quite pleasant smelling this wine.  The taste was very strong melon, with little bits of apple thrown in.  It had a buttery almost creamy texture, that confused my pallet a little because don't really expect that from a wine.  Overall, not a bad wine but not sure if I would drink it again.
