  Haven't scored a '19 yet but, wow.....very nice. Light yellow in the glass. Nose notes of pretty standard citrus, cream. The palate is where this one shines.....loads of creamy goodness. A hint of vanilla/butterscotch and more citrus. Nice weight on the mouth and just the right touch of oak, nothing crazy but certainly creamy....drinks above its price point for me.

  Powerfully built fine and mineral Chardonnay, pressed with whole clusters, aged for 9 months in FR oak, 27% new. Medium lemon colour. Medium intensity complex aroma of smoky lemons, pears, dried peaches, herbs, yellow plums. Medium+ body, feels muscular and concentrated in harmonious balance with juicy and crisp texture, citrus fruit salty mineral and toasted flavours, zesty well integrated medium+ acidity.

  At Dinner by Heston Blumenthal, Dubai for Pete’s birthday celebration. A mid-ground Chardonnay somewhere between a very linear Bourgogne Blanc and a richer, Chassagne-Montrachet-style wine. I matched it with halibut, charred chicory and green sauce, and they went pretty well together.

  Lovely wine, concur with other notes, danced with lively fruit, balanced acidity.

  *** See previous notes.
  
  Such a lovely bracing flavorful wine. Longish finish. Linear. Loads of lemon zest. Steely. Great price. Case worthy.
