  Clear deep gold; clear medium nose of candied orange, sweet shortbread and florality; dry-ish; medium acidity; high alcohol; medium plus body; medium plus flavour intensity; palate has fruit payoff with orange and wood chips dominating; medium plus finish; drink now; the reason people don’t like oaky Chardonnay

  Nice nose of pear, peach and very slight oak. Full-mouth feel, nice balance of fruit, oak, and citrus. Glad I let it sit a few years. Plenty of life left.

  Golden yellow colour. Honey, grapefruit and apple, but also taste oak. Slightly on the sweet side compared to many other chardonnays. Have this wine with richer food in order to offset the heavy body and flavours.

  Rich and intense, medium to full body. Baked apple and pear with balanced acidity.

  Not really my style of Chardonnay. Crisper and more mineral driven than the buttery style I prefer. Crisp wine with some tropical notes.
