  Tasted side by side with the Bannockburn Chardonnay 2012. A richer, buttery nose although less defined compared to the Bannockburn.

  Felton Road Dinner (The Wine Society Stevenage): Unoaked, according to Nigel Greening made exactly the same way as the Bannockburn only difference being the Elms is unoaked.
  I was surprised by how fresh this was both on the nose and the palate.
  Saline finish with citrus.

  Robe de couleur or pâle. Bouquet intense, complexe et déroutant qui nous amène hors des sentiers battus d'un Chardonnay classique avec des notes de fruits exotiques tels la goyave et fruits de la passion, melon et nectarine, en plus des arômes typiques tels la poire, beurre, citron et trâce de poussière de roches.
  
  La bouche est soyeuse, riche, minérale et démontre une belle intensité malgré qu'il manque une touche d'acidité.
  
  Il serait intéressant de l'intégrer en pirate dans une dégustation de vins blancs de la Bourgogne tels Chablis.
