  Opened to a floral nose. The palate was apricot, melon, guava and a tinge of pineapple. With a nice finish it complemented our Sunday night sushi.

  Very good indeed. Enough oak but not too much to ruin proceedings. Some depth, richness, butter and spice with lively acidity. Very good and lots of flavour / power mixed in. 14.5% which is rather well integrated, even on finish which is pretty long.
  Nice to try one with a few more years on. All vintages I’ve tasted so far are excellent.

  Stone Cote can be a bit aggressively oaked, but not this one. Nicely balanced all around. Rich without heaviness or aggressive oak.

  Not a style chardonnay I prefer.

  Really good! The nose is a bit oaky and buttery, though this swiftly melds with pineapple, lemon, honeysuckle, and touches of vanilla and liquid stone. It is big, round, and suave in the mouth, delivering rich, candied citrus fruits followed by a long mineral-driven finish. It is not super complex, but it sure was enjoyable, and impeccably made.
