Tasting - Wine Men of Gotham Chardonnay Semillon

Wine Men of Gotham Chardonnay/Semillon
Name: Wine Men of Gotham
Variety: 80% Chardonnay, 20% Semillon
Region: South Australia
Country: Australia
Year: 2008
Price: $14.00

Winery review: Gotham's 2008 Wine Men of Gotham Chardonnay 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-ling finish. - 85 points, Robert Parker

My review: This wine smelled acidic and of cat pee. However, it tasted like lemons with an oaked finish. It was acidic and dry, not awful, but definitely not up my alley, especially because of the nose.
