Tasting - The Winery at Bull Run Barrel Select Chardonnay

Name: The Winery at Bull Run Barrel Select Chardonnay
Variety: 100% Chardonnay
Region: USA
Country: Virginia
Year: 2014
Price: $29

Winery Review: A Virginian-style Chardonnay, aromas of ripe pear, honeydew melon and red delicious apples. Crisp flavors of apple and pear followed by subtle nuances of oak. Spicy notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, tumeric mid palate to a lingering vanilla spice finish.


My Review:
I’ve never come across a Chardonnay that I liked but this was a first. I found this one enjoyable. It was oaked just the perfect amount to create the right flavors. The nose was of pear and apple with stone fruit and butter on the palate. It was silky throughout and smooth on the short finish.
