A deliciously fruity French style Chardonnay, no heavy buttery-ness. Loved it!

Citrus and some pear, a little more tropical fruit like pineapple possibly? Also got some creaminess and toastyness.
Warmer climate unoaked chard in the Côte d’Or style.

Hint of citrus, nice balance of acid and apples.

Diving into some Chardonnay’s for a change. I get some mineral petrol on this I think .. description says citrusy but that’s not prominent to me. Very enjoyable. Not oaky or buttery yay!
