You got to be kidding me! Another Argentine Chardonnay!

Wait a minutes! Paul Hobbs makes it of Paul Hobbs Wines! http://www.paulhobbs.com/
Hey no wonder it taste like a California Chardonnay. A really good California Chardonnay.

This is my style of Chardonnay. A balance of Butter and tropical fruit with just a bit of oak. The wine has a luscious mouth feel. Hints of coffee on the finish. This was an interesting wine that a fellow wine geek opened for a few of us last night. It is a trio of winemakers Andrea Marchiori, Luis Barraud and Paul Hobbs. They produce some world class Mendoza Wines from there Vina Cobos line of wines. I am not sure if these are even available here in the States for purchase. It is the first time I have ever heard of them. I was told that this wine in particular can only be purchased if you are on Paul Hobbs mailing list and it is a 2 bottle maximum. It was a special treat from a very special wine friend. Thanx for sharing Ken! Oh! and the rest of the wines we tasted last night were not bad either.

Check under this website http://www.paulhobbsimports.com/ for more wines produced and distributed under Paul Hobbs import company!

Cheers!
