Martin Ray


Name: Martin Ray
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: Russian River Valley, Sonoma, California
Country: United States
Year: 2010
Price: $16.99

Winery review: “So good for this price. Rich and creamy and ripe in tropical fruit, green apples and pear flavors, with the perfect touch of buttered toast from oak, and all that balanced and brightened with crisp acidity. Just what you want in a California Chard.” – 91 pts, Wine Enthusiast.

My review: I liked this Chardonnay. On the nose, I caught hints of wood and citric fruits. The taste had a hint of sweetness in the mid palate and was very citrusy at the end. The oak monster was definitely present through the taste. This wine was very full-bodied and refreshing. I did not try this wine with food.
