Fat Bastard Chardonnay Tasting Notes
Visual: This Chardonnay pours with a rich, golden hue that’s as inviting as a sunny day at the beach. It’s bright and bold, just like the wine itself.
Nose: Stick your nose in the glass and you’re met with a delightful array of aromas. Think of a tropical paradise with ripe pineapples, peaches, and a hint of citrus zest, all rounded out by a touch of buttery vanilla. It’s like a fruit stand got a makeover from a pastry chef.
Palate: Take a sip, and your taste buds will thank you. This Chardonnay is big and bold, living up to its name. Flavors of juicy peaches, ripe pears, and tropical fruits burst onto the scene, followed by a creamy, buttery finish that’s as smooth as a lounge singer in a smoky bar. There’s a hint of toasty oak that adds depth and character, making each sip a little adventure in your mouth.
Finish: The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a trail of fruit and a touch of vanilla that lingers like a sweet memory. It’s the perfect end to a delightful experience, making you want to pour another glass.

Fat bastard Chardonnay
By: AlanA delightful Chardonnay rich with loads of yellow peach, hints of fig and lemon curd which pleasantly meld to full of intriguing secondary notes of spice, toast and butterscotch with gestural nutty, mealy complexity. True depth of palate extends from the structural acidity culminating in a zesty, clean finish of tangerine and grapefruit. As a Chardonnay lover this wine represents excellent value. Although it is imported, its not a wine for longevity as it drinks really well now.
