Supple and stylish this tangy dry and Macon-like chardonnay has a lightly floral and banana-like aroma of grapefit and melon fruit with underlying nuances of toasty vanilla oak and creamy charcuterie-like lees-derived complexity. Initially vibrant and juicy with neatly integrated nutty vanilla oak it extends towards a long crisp and savoury finish of refreshing acidity.

Brilliant yellow-gold in color. This is a classic representation of a maturing chardonnay offering deep concentrated aromas of lemon pudding sprinkled with tropical scents of pineapple and mango and topped with hazelnut. Richly textured on the palate a creaminess at the core makes way for an attractive buttery note on the backpalate. Nevertheless integrated acids provide a lightness of density and help keep the flavors reined in and focused. Spiciness found in the lemon and mineral-infused finish highlights tension and elegance. Ready to drink now but has a few years of cellarability ahead.
