  Golden. From the start a bunch of fruits as melon, pear, peaches and citrus and also some tropical notes, as pineapple. More refined and maybe a bit less intense than the 2018, but with great poise as well, esp. enough acidity to be animating. Along with the fruit there are spicy notes and notes that reminds of aging in new oak. On the homepage of the producer, there is no reference that is has seen new oak, just 9 month elevage "su lievito". If perfectly cellared since release: -2030. 5/13/17/10. 94 points from Monica Larner from the WA.

  Light to medium gold. An assertive and attractive nose of vanilla oak. On the palate, more oak influence, underpinning generous ripe fruit. On the long ripe finish, cashew notes start to emerge. This wine is no shrinking violet, and some might find it slightly over the top. I like this big style once in a while and this is a beautiful example. 14%, cork.

  Subtle flavors of vanilla and oak with light tropical fruits and well balanced spice. A slight minerality also. Not a big fan of Chardonnay, but this is very well done.

  Élégance with tropical fruit and vanilla, good acidity, round, good length. The balance and finesse dominate. Is it the youth? The power of earlier years is replaced by joy and élégance.
