Somewhat shy nose. Crisp palate with roasted hazelnut and nutmeg flavors. Caramelized apples finish. Lots of oak so probably not for the traditional French Chardonnay lovers... ;) Probably works better with food.

Golden color. Papaya, banana, and carmel on the nose, balanced oak, full mouth feel, moderate length. Very good chardonnay for the price and confirms the quality of the Robert Young vineyards. Should hold for a couple of years.

BOUQUET: Green apple, wood, mild tropical fruit, mild vanilla = 11/14
TASTE: Medium rich, crisp, mild fruits, tropical fruits, med finish = 13/18
PREFERENCE: starting to lose the fruit, tending to more crispness = 1/4
