This is my first oaked Chardonnay from Burgundy. This type of wine is on my "wish list," and this particular wine does enough to encourage me to seek out more examples. The glass has a deep gold color showing its age, and my sense is that this wine is past its prime. But, I love the aromas of buttered white bread and honey, which remind me of walking into a good local bakery. Subtle scents of pears and pineapples compliment the baked aromas, leading to a creamy, full, long-lasting, rich, tart and slightly waxy finish. #rully #butter
