Bright gold, strong reduction, struck match, grilled lemon. Love the style, could be mistaken for white burgundy, just missing a bit of depth/length 😋

Clean scent. Complex, quick wine that darts around between flavors. Crisp green apple; lightly mineral; floral (chamomile?); very drawn out citric acid/warhead candy finish. Oily/viscous texture.

Super elegant. Medium-light but very complex and composed. Notes of hay, apple, hazelnut give way to a clean finish. A touch oxidative in a beautiful way.

Unusual bouquet, petroleum, almonds, fennel, citrus, bit oxidative, great tension, really harmonious, outstanding Chardonnay expression.
