Lighter body, but still had silky texture, a light touch with the oak complimenting the orchard fruits and lifted acidity. Elegant and refined.

Superb French Chardonnay that paired beautifully with pan seared scallops. A chalky, crushed gravel nose, bright gold colour with flavours of lemon and grapefruit. Long finish. Excellent wine.

Too dry for my tastes, prefer fruitier flavor but went well with the entire meal.

Not super excited about this but not mad about it either. Definitely fresh and some zippiness I wasn’t expecting. Barely ripe tropical fruit and melon on the nose but tart mineral palate transition. Quaffable, not firmly in any camp - a pleasant acquaintance for sure.
