McLaren Vale Chardonnay
20170322 Watson's Cellar, w22492w fr w22992w
RP92, JH95
Paired with: pizza, m&s sausages, cuttlefish sausage, baked potatoes
Taste: simple fruity, medium body, ok
Dense, inky purple-crimson; absolutely achieves expressing 'a profound sense of place'; unctuous black fruits swathed in dark chocolate drive the bouquet and medium to full-bodied palate with relentless precision, yet keep balance and length. Oak and tannins are part of the package, but you sense them, rather than feel their impact. Carries its alcohol with ease. JH
Colour:Red
Sweetness:Dry
Body:Medium to Full-Bodied
