Stonehurst 2010 Chambourcin

Variety: Chambourcin
Region/G.I.: Hunter Valley, Hunter
Vintage: 2010
Alcohol: 12.5%
Bouquet: Pleasant cedar tones, with secondary notes of combined forest berries
Flavour: Medium bodied, good flavour according to the nose. No real tannin and ever so slightly acidic. Generally ok but unlikely to be something I would seek out.
Points: 83
Notes: I am not a fan of this resistant varietal and cancelled my regular order from the wine club when they started slipping this variety into my mixed cases. This one is fine. The almost 25% discount to $15.52 (~280 kc) makes it reasonable
