Tasting Notes
Light to medium yellow-green; the bouquet has some slightly herbal overtones – typical of very cool grown chardonnay – to the citrus and melon fruit, nuances of almond/cashew, and balanced and integrated oak. The palate is very subtle and sophisticated, again with those nutty cashew characters, and brisk acidity. A slight reservation is that I might have expected a touch more fruit.
