Apple, tangerine, egg custard, full mouth feel. Long finish. This one is tasting great and will only get better with time

Another Wednesday Wine Committee in the books. Great hosting by @Bill Makens . 1 sparkler, 3 whites, 4 reds, 1 dessert wine all served blind.

Sicilian Chardonnay. That’s a first for me. Great depth and complexity to this wine. Again, didn’t pick up a lot of oak...fruit really shines. Juicy fruit, clove, banana bread and puréed pineapple on the nose with a very round and fruit driven profile. My guess was Margaret River chardonnay from Australia. Seemed like a dead ringer. Quite enjoyable.

As always, great wine from Planeta. Full bodied with wood notes.
