This wine was asking for trouble: "Tropical fragrances provide a tantalising suggestion of the creamy peach and nougat flavours to come. A subtle spiciness gives this lively white an exotic twist." WOOF. Well I don't know about all that, but I will tell you this. The taste is complex, however you get that for which you ask. Unwooded: no oaky taste at all, but that doesn't mean it's intolerably sour. This was a change on the basic chardonnay of that initial wave of tartness.
Great if you don't want something "smooth," but you don't necessarily care about the initial acerbic hit and want a pungent, hearty Chardonnay.

I can't honestly write a review. I have to assume this bottle was twisted in some way because the taste was horrid.
