This was super-oaky on night 1 but on night 2 that’s calmed down. Still a bit of toastiness, but the nose is now showing some delicate Chardonnay fruit as well. Reminds me a bit of Cali Chards from Carneros in the early 80s. Acids are very soft. Finish seems longer on night 2 also.

Nice, round chard with a bit of oak, but mild French oak which didn’t detract from the fruit
