This
Star Trek themed wine pays homage to one of the classic alien races that were
part of the original founders of the United Federation of Planets. This wine boldly goes with a vibrant
turquoise color. The Andorian race were…well, blue skinned, hence why the wine has
a similar color. This wine is sourced from Santa Lucia Highlands AVA in
California. A dye was used to give the color
tint to this white wine which does not seem to mar the tasting profile. So, how does this “alien” wine hold up to Terran
tastebuds? It is good. The wine was aged about 12 months before
bottling, so it has had a decent time to “sit”.
This Chardonnay hits the 14.2% abv mark with primary notes of citrus and
apricot. It has a classic clean, fresh,
and long finish. With the higher price point, you are paying for the sci-fi
theme more so than the wine, but the raised UFP bottle emblem makes it a keeper.
Not sure what the Andorian word is for cheers, but drink with your favorite
alien friends and enjoy!
