This was a full bodied chardonnay, creamy on the palate. You could taste some toasted oats, and wild fruit with a hint of peach/apricot. Definitely will try again might be a great summer or early spring vintage.

Aromas of bruised yellow apple, croissant and brioche, a light nuttiness (marzipan?). Flavor is similar, but brighter - the acid playing a really nice balancing role. Apple pie with green apples, touch of lemon curd. Medium acid. Medium plus body. Really lovely, impressive cool climate Chardonnay. Not trying to be more than it is, and being what it is, beautifully. Even more so as the "entry level" Chardonnay offering from Queylus

Wild-fermented in barrel, the medium-high intensity nose offers lovely aromas of orchard fruit, pear, apple, and gentle vanilla oak spice with some flor and malolactic characters. On the medium+ bodied palate it has very nice aroma replays joined by lemon curd flavours. It has well-balanced acidity, while vanilla spice notes linger on the long, very satisfying finish. Score: 90+ pts

Buttered croissant, yellow apple, citrus and lees nose. Medium-bodied with bright acidity; smoky mineral and leesy flavours and finish. Medium length. 3.5/5
