Chardonnay grand Cru 2012
Bright yellow color. Clear.
Vanilla and toasty aromas, peach and apricot. Quite rich aromas and intense with oak.
A bit sharp in the taste. High alcohol and medium plus body.
Long aftertaste and ripe lemony finish.

Medium golden color. Aromas of mild oak are pronounced. Other aromas and flavors of golden delicious apple, lemon curd, roasted nuts, toast and vanilla are also present. Complex but extremely well balanced. Creamy texture. In the style of white burgundy. High quality. Quite the pleasant surprise. Thanks for sharing, Ron B!
