A wonderful wine exhibiting all the classical components one expects from a good Chardonnay. The nose offers up rich colza accompanied by flowers, minerals and wonderful exotic fruits. Oak treatment is present but still gentle and on the more elegant side. The palate adds very nicely to the overall impression with both balance and integration exactly at the place you expect. Length on the finish lasts some 45 seconds or so. All in all a lovely wine! (score is 92+)

A riper and sweeter style of chardonnay which my wife could not identify as chardonnay! But she still loved it. Quite different than the 2011, lacking the mineral/Flint. This is plusher. Good, just lacking the fruit character I was looking for tonight. Long finish though - lip smacking good. Wife - 92, Me - 90

Library purchase and still drinking very well with floral and slight citrus notes.

Drank as a PNP. Showed stronger minerality on open that gave way to creaminess after 30 minutes.
