Double Dog Dare Chardonnay

Name: Double Dog Dare
Color: White
Varietal: Chardonnay
Vintage: NA
Country/State: California
Region: Various
Price: $4
Stars: 4 (out of 5)


For the price, $4, you can't beat the Double Dog Dare Chardonnay. I bought this wine recently at Total Wine after seeing it recommended on various websites as a tremendous value. I figured for $4, it was worth a shot...After having a couple of glasses last night with dinner (grilled swordfish!), I agree with all of the positive reviews. It's incredibly fresh, fruity, and light. The nose is rather limited, but the taste is apples and citrus fruit with a lemony blast at the end. The finish is nice, though not particularly long. Not much oak, if any at all. Very refreshing!! For the price, it's tough to beat. This wine would best be enjoyed on its own or with light seafood or chicken dishes.
