This Wine: Medium lemon color. On the nose: Apple, peach, lemon etc. - fantastic. On the palate: very closed in the beginning - opening up slowly in the glass. Nevertheless, the nose is a lot more charming at the moment. Medium+ acidity. Medium alcohol, body, intensity and finish.
Still an excellent btl. 91+.

This Wine: Very fruity including notes of pineapple. I do need tropical fruit in chardonnay - a little too warm style for me. Not at a criminal level documented by the level of acidity which is high! Finish is medium.
