Tasting - Marimar Don Miguel - "Russian River"

Name: Marimar Don Miguel - "Russian River"
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: Russian River Valley
Country: USA
Year: 2010
Price: Regular: $50.00, Sale: $19.95
Winery Review: WE 93 Pts. - Editor's Choice - According to the Wine Enthusiast: It’s unbelievable that this Chardonnay is unoaked, it’s so incredibly rich and creamy. Just packed with layers of tropical fruits, peaches, Asian pears and oatmeal cookies. All that butter and cream must be from the malolactic fermentation and aging on the lees. One of the best unoaked Chardonnays ever.
Personal Review: This wine smelled like cat pee and citrus fruits. It tasted like cat pee, butter, and citrus fruits. It was very acidic and light bodied and slightly creamy. It was a very interesting combination of flavors, but I was not a huge fan. I did not have this wine with any food.
