Kirkland Chardonnay - Weekend Wine Review

As the temperatures swelled to an almost unbearable 90 degrees (32 C) it was decided to open this bottle of Kirkland Chardonnay. Advertised as a crisp California wine with notes of melon and butterscotch. Yes, it was bargained priced at 7.99 for 1.5 liter bottle, which should have been the clue anyone, I mean anyone, would have picked up. I prefer unoaked Chardonnay but was willing to give this one a try. Epic Fail



Tastes heavy on the tongue, coating as the promised butterscotch or some other coagulated substance.
Tastes like a wine up too late for its age.
Honeydew, unemployment and scents of urine after you have eaten say....asparagus.
Oily, a good bum wine. First bottle we have upended into the sink in quite a long time.
Clearly, not recommend. Grade = F

  3. You're so funny Tina. Love your "cohesive" description, lol...

    Would you like to taste a bottle of wine for me. Marion thought I needed some wine so she bought me a bottle of Barefoot Refresh Perfectly Pink. Quite frankly, I don't think it is actually wine as the label says "wine style." Have you ever heard of it?

    Thanks for sharing, now go get some real wine!!!

  5. Butterscotch? I am a sucker for a 7.99 wine so I probably would have bitten too. :)
