This 4 year old Chardonnay is drinking very nicely now. Showing very nice complexity with a great mouthfeel. Not too oaky and nicely balanced.
Easy drinking and a good food wine too. A wine you want to share with friends and talk about.
Has high alcohol, but it is very nicely integrated at this point.
Wine Enthusiasts 90 points.
Much better when not very cold, and that's when the complexity shows. Would continue to age nicely in the next 5 years.
I paired it with 3 different cheeses, but was perfect with the double cream Brie cheese.
