Every once in a while, the bottle that we’ve selected as our Weekday Wine doesn’t live up to our expectations, and that was the case for the wine that we were hoping to write about today.  Fortunately, it’s rare, but it happens!

Tonight’s poor performer was a Chardonnay from Northern California’s Carneros region.  The wine had a beautiful straw color and excellent aromatics, but alas, it was far too mouth-puckeringly tart to be worthy of recommending.

No matter!  We’ve already got a stunner lined up for Thursday’s Weekend Wine post.

Tune in tomorrow for this week’s “Don’t Miss” Wine Events post.
