Community Tasting Note

  February 3, 2019 - Already on the nose one can tell the heavy oak régime this wine has been treated to. On the palate very tropical fruit, impossible to mistake this for chablis is my first reaction. Nose is shockful of buttered toast, heavily toasted nuts and almonds. Pineapple, peaches. Oily texture. Has some acidity but day two it's almost all gone. Drank this side by side with a Tasmanian Chardonnay from Josef Chromy, and the difference is striking although the Chromy has quite a lot of new oak as well, and is almost equally leesy and weighty from the batônnage I presume has been exercised with both these wines. Not low in alcohol.
