Premoxed! Heard of that with white Burgundy, but Italian Chardonnay? Infuriating. Super advanced color. Muted sour taste. Bleach -- down the drain

A beautiful, balanced Chardonnay with stone and tropical fruit aromas yet with a refreshing, lively acidity. Very good with food - pasta and, indeed, cockerel.

Like their style, this wine displays an abundance of rich fruits (this one is dominated by tropical varieties). Not cloying or sweet, but definitely on the heavy side of Chardonnay. Surprising well balanced.

Below expectations, to be honest. Nice and straight-shooting, but lacking the concentration and complexity I was hoping for. Still quite solid, just not" wow"

Tight on the first night but really opened up on the second. Lean style, with lemon, minerals, hints of melon and a saline note. Full in the mouth and long on the finish, I think this fills out and softens a bit with age. Definite winner...
