Previous notes apply. Just medium weight Very citrus and pronounced acidity (surely not added?). Phillip Jones is a big proponent of natural acidity with his Pinots so you would think this was natural. Next day - too much acidity and vanilla oak to be a top Chardonnay in particular for an $87 wine. I have had better from this producer.

Pale to mid Lemon in colour. Citrus and French Oak aromas with some leesy Notes. On the palate citrus again - Lemon and Lime. Made by Phillip Jones, arguably the best producer of Pinot Noir in Australia. To be honest this doesn’t live up to the quality of his Pinots. Lacking in complexity for an $87 wine - not good QPR.
