Straw Yellow and clear as a bell in the glass. On the nose oak and nuts plus slight critus note. When you a take a mouth full with a little air the complexity of wine comes to the fore. A wine with a front , middle and back end. The middle palate is sensentional with a lovely dry finish. I like a chardonnay that tastes like Chardonnay not a high acid early picked or over ripe fat and flabby over oaked wine. This wine should be drunk now as its in prime.

7 year old chardonnay from Tassie. Colour of light straw no hint of age. Aroma of citrus fruits/peach and roasted nuts. Low acidity with a nice malo buttery mouth feel. Its a very pleasant Chardonnay- still some fruit left with a short finish. Drinking very well now but with fruit fading will not improve any further.

Drunk in winter so temperature plays at factor in aroma and structure -taste. Very little aroma even with 1 hour decant. Its 7 years old now and showing its age. Its very lean and a bit thin and almost no structure. There is a hint of barnyard and sour cherries. If anyone has a bottle suggest drink now as its fruit is almost gone and their not a lot structure to hold wine together.
