Craftsman, Kiralyleanyka, 2006 (Hungary) - This is a new grape to me and is described on the back label as light and reminiscent of Chenin Blanc and Viognier. I can see that although it's too light and dry to have the finer qualities of either of those grapes. Nancy did not like this, we both thought it was a little bitter. I drank the rest of it and in time I saw past the bitterness and got hints of citrus and salt. But the truth is neither of us were moved by this grape so I'll score this just 5 out of 10 for lower average.
Lindemans Bin 65 Chardonnay, 2007 (South Eastern Australia) - This was part of a set of inexpensive Australian Chardonnays I bought to try. It was drinkable but unremarkable and simply 5 out of 10 for low average.
Black Opal, Chardonnay, 2005 (South Eastern Australia) - This was yet another inexpensive Australian Chardonnay I bought to compare, and this one was a dollar or two more than the others. It made no difference. It was drinkable but unremarkable and simply 5 out of 10 for low average.
