  Perfekt vin til blinis variationer. Vinen duften af hvide blomster, hvide ferskner og friske citrusfrugter både citron, lime og grapefrugt - og bagved friskheden kommer den krydrede sødme - de ristede nødder og vaniljen. Vinen er fyldig og aromatisk i munden og livlig citrus i finalen sikrer friskheden og og ikke meget fad lagring i smagen.

  Appearance: Clear wine with a pale lemon colour and golden reflections.
  
  Nose: Clean nose with a pronounced intensity. This wine is developing.
  
  A beautiful collection of aromas - really fruit driven with white peach, pear and lemon jumping out of the glass. There is some smoke from the ageing in French Oak and a real nutty finish to the nose. Gorgeous.
  
  Palate:
  Dry
  Medium acidity
  Medium alcohol
  Medium+ intensity
  Medium body
  Medium+ finish
  
  Firm and smooth on the palate with a good intensity of flavour. Pear, peach and nuts are prominent with a firm backbone and a round, smooth body and finish. Acidity is dropping slightly but is still in balance.
  
  Excellent quality Chardonnay from Marlborough, New Zealand. Can drink now but has the structure for another year or so of development. At 26 euros a bottle, expensive for a wine in Spain but good QPR!

  Solid, typical new world Chardonnay with decent lemon fruit and plenty of oak.

  Nose of citrus with oak and almond hints. On palate, balanced, bright with taut acidity running through biscuity fruit. Long finish
