Nice nose with a mix of toast, pastry and fruit. Complex and precise. Still quite young and needs at least a few hours in a decanter, but when it does it really comes alive.
Medium gold colour.
Pronounced aromas of toast, roasted hazelnuts, flint, apple pie, brioche, peach, nectarine, lemon curd, nutmeg, ginger, nougat.
Pronounced palate.
Medium (+) body, medium (+) acidity, long finish.

Was the co-star (with Mate's 13) at a few Chardonnay tastings back in 2018/2019 but disappointing showing this time around, perhaps seen some storage warmth along the way somewhere, or perhaps starting to show some signs of decline. Mate's 13 looked much more energetic next to it.

Yellow stone fruit, lemon, cold cream on the nose. Bright and vibrant on the palate, great balance, precise but still generous. Nice minerality, good depth and length. Drink or keep. 91-93
