Popped and poured. Tropical fruit nose, a little peach with some mineral notes. Rich palate with lots of fruit concentration but not much lift. Could use some more acidity, but for an 8 year old Chard is drinking quite nicely tonight.

(J. Rochioli Chardonnay River Block) Canary yellow color; lemon, lemon oil and lemon peel nose; sweet lemon palate, like a good villages Bourgogne blanc from ’02 or ’05; short medium finish

Deep yellow in color, with some, honeyed, yellow fruit remaining, this has started to oxidize and needs to be consumed now.
