  cousin adele was visiting from chicago. it was our turn to entertain. also at the party were lisa, her children and daughter's grandchildren. this was the second of two bottles served. after drinking initial purchase i went back to the retailer for the rest. the wine was enjoyed by all. i still like this wine better than other reviewers. remarkably young 4 years past the vintage. refreshing aroma. generous white fruits on the palate with a hint of lemon. these bottles seem to be in better balance than last time. firm structure. more on the masculine side this time. will probably still be good next summer. no more available at the local retailer

  shared with pat at selkirk manor to celebrate short work day. i like this wine better than other reviewers. remarkably young 4 years past the vintage. refreshing aroma. generous white fruits on the palate with a hint of lemon. at times, the lemon seems to take over. i don't get melon sweetness. firm structure. will probably still be good next summer. going back to clean out the retailer.

  Un Chardonnay au boisé fondu, fruit mûr au nez, corsé en bouche, alcool présent. Toucher fluide en milieu de bouche, des amers et une finale saline, intéressant.

  (Frederikshøj) Thick fruity nose with a hint of apples, big taste with plenty of oak. Okay but not my style.
