Bridlewood Estate Winery-Chardonnay-Monterey County-California-2006-$10.99-Citrus on

the nose, light in color for a Chard, apple, a little vanilla, spice..was ok but for the price pleasant. I

like this vineyards Viognier better.   NR    CR-3-3.5    Good with salads, pasta, chicken.

Nova Wines-Norma Jeane-A Young Merlot-Central Coast-California-2006-$18.00-A hard to

describe nose, dark in color,  also a hard to describe favor, a bit harsh, tannic, just ok.  I like the

Marilyn Merlot wines better, great label though.   NR   CR-3    Good with pasta, chicken, steak.
