Tasting note
Good pale yellow. Subtly complex aromas of peach nectar, brown spices and musky lees. Nicely dry in the mouth, but with an insidious sweetness to the flavors of stone fruits, pineapple and spices. A firm spine of acidity contributes to the dry impression on the brisk, persistent finish. Lovely expressive chardonnay with restraint. Score - 90. (Stephen Tanzer, International Wine Cellar, May/June 2013)
Deep straw hues. Sweet vanilla and hints if almonds on the nose with clean tropical fruit to follow. Delicate oak support. Rich and full in the mouth with layers of full fruit flavours including white peach, apricot, grapefruit and always the vanilla backing.
Bright straw hues. Sweet vanilla and hints of almonds on the front of the nose with clean tropical fruit to follow. Delicate oak support. Rich and full in the mouth with layers of full fruit flavours including grapefruit, apricot, white peach and always the vanilla backing. Spicy, brisk finish will lend to a few more years of bottle development.
