Shop Review: "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-long finish."

Personal Review: This wine had a distinct aroma of apple juice with crisp honey hints. Upon tasting it, I detected obvious hints of pear. It was also musty in taste, but not in an unpleasant way. I enjoyed the smell and the taste, although they seemed to differ from one another. This wine made my mouth feel clean afterward. Overall, the flavor seemed watered down, but I still enjoyed it.

I tasted this wine on its own without food.
