Not usually a big white fan but this was so good! Perfectly dry for me, light, fruity, balanced. Had to celebrate turning in my thesis.

Fruit forward and possibly residual sugar.
A really fun and easy drinking summer pool wine.

Color of saturated gold. Nose is very nice with roasts nuts, even some cocoa, honey, ripe fruits note, and oaks. Exactly like the color hints you. Taste follows similar notes, a dense silky Chardonnay, with vanilla bean and coffee bean flavors, a bit zesty, tinkling mouthfeel, loaded with roasted nuts characters, and slight hint of the sweetness from ripe fruits. Aftertaste shows some additional acidity, low mineral and low tannins. Very nicely done.
