Tasting: 2013 Meiomi Chardonnay


The wine is greenish-gold in color.  Very close to a mid-stalk area of lemongrass.  It smells of lemon, honeydew, and garden hose while tasting of papaya, lemon and straw.  It's medium bodied with a satin-like texture.  I would say the acidity is slightly higher that it should be for a good balance. 

It was good, but not great.

Paired with a shrimp scampi with red pepper flake.  The bright lemony flavor would cut straight through the scampi butter sauce and douse the spiciness of the red pepper flake which was nice.
