The second wine I tried this Saturday was the One Hope Chardonnay. The One Hope wines were pretty cool because a percentage of their profits go to different causes. For the Chardonnay, 50% of the profits are donated to Breast Cancer research. This wine comes from the Napa Valley Region of California and is made from Chardonnay grapes and blended with Muscat and Chenin Blanc grapes picked in 2009. The Vintage Cellar sells this wine for $11.95, which is another affordable price for the wines they offered. The described the bouquet of this wine as "apple blossom and honeysuckle" with "flavors of crisp pear and apple... balanced oak and bright acidity." I agreed with this description for the most part. It was very fragrant and I definitely tasted the apple and pear the Vintage Cellar mentioned. It was a pretty sweet wine and I would love to try it again some time.
