Stewed peach, peach blossom, and slithered almond lead the aromas before air reveals preserved lemon, homemade lemonade, a hint of praline and a glimmer of dried apricot. The palate has an attractively bitter tone with peach and yellow apple at the fore followed by lemon peel, homemade lemonade again and grilled nuts. There’s some gentle phenolic grip to the sides providing another textural element and a lovely cut of preserved lemon acidity to wash down the finish. I like this. It delivers on interest and flavour with a good frame of textural structure. Nicely done. 92 Points
One of the most planted, versatile and popular white varieties in the world. As a stand alone grape, Chardonnay is not the most interesting, nor complex varietal out there...but in the hands of a great winemaker it can be turned into one of the world's greatest pleasures! From the best bubbles of Champagne, to the lean, unoaked and mineral expressions of Chablis and the opulent, oaked and complex whites of Burgundy, Chardonnay is responsible for making some of the greatest expressions of white wine on the planet.
