A lighter Chardonnay without the heavy oak. Weighty enough for salmon and pasta Alfredo yet with enough fruit to still feel somewhat refreshing. I don't love Chardonnay but this one is good when the food calls for it.

A little past it's time. I also don't think I cellared it very well.

Aggressive acid for a chard and a sour finish, no mid palate or aromatic fruit no elegance

16/20 (89/100)

Цвет соломенно-золотистый. Аромат выражено ванильный, цветочный, сладковатый. Медовые тона, ириска, нуга, карамель. Сладкий. Тело очень полное, вкус соответствующий аромату, очень много сладкого дуба, абрикоса, копченых тонов, красиво, сырковая масса. Послевкусие долгое.
