Slightly pale but golden color Nose is floral with ripe yellow apple & pear and mild apricot Fresh green apple flavor with lemon High acid- great food wine Definite chalky minerality but I didn't detect the burned flint character of chablis

Very soft. I don't know if it's the age as I rarely drink a Chardonnay 14 years after the vintage, but it's a very soft malolactic quality with mild initial tart golden apple and a definite baked apple quality without sweetness. Full body and mouthfeel. Mellow oaked finish and oaky nose.
