Black Star Arcturos Sur Lie Chardonnay 2011: Review


Black Star Farms
Old Mission
Traverse City, Michigan, USA
Isidor’s Choice and Capella Vineyards
$22.99 a bottle From Bavarian Inn Frankenmuth
They are overpriced for it should be around $16.00
13% abv

Appearance: very light straw

Aroma: citrus skin, pear, and mineral water

Flavors: citrusy acidity, a tangy grapefruit peel tantalizes the tongue; crisp apple and white grape to add a little balance, nice touch of floral, lingering tart feel on the aftertaste

Mouthfeel: the acidity is very crisp from start to finish

To the Point: this might be a nice one to age a few years; the acidity should mellow with time and the flavors should shine.
