 Tasted by KonradGee on 11/12/2021 & rated 85 points: Pale straw, clear 3
Peach on the nose, with hints of citrus, lemon, apple. Perhaps a suspicion of vanilla toffee or caramel? 6
Dry, medium body, classic chardonnay soft buttery toffee, mild but slightly sharp malic acidity, light citrus pith bitterness, spirit warmth, good long length. It lingers on and on. 8
