Saturday, August 10, 2019 - Disgorged December 4, 2008. Caramel colour -- and it smells and tastes the way it looks. From the pop and pour: quintessential old chardonnay smells: slightly mushroomy, a bit bready, and fairly nutty too. There's a hint of orange peel, coffee, and caramel as well. The palate is quite intense, but there are certainly some sherry/madeira oxidative qualities here. Nonetheless, this is extremely complex, and it's abundantly clear that this is a wine that will need lots of air to open up. Tons of acidity and chalk.
