  1/18/2018 - Renton Likes this wine:

  Color: a gold verging on light amber
  Body: medium - body visually with medium to taste
  
  Aroma: flush with vanilla and tropical fruits, a touch of yeastiness and a hint of dessert creaminess.
  
  Palate: A medium body with a lingering acidity on the finish, this wine has the flavor of ripe, red apple. With a rich mouthfeel and tailing acidic finish, this is certainly an Oaked Chardonnay that's a little too much for me on its own however it paired well with the yellow Thai curry that I made for dinner.

  Golden colour. Somewhat exotic profile. A bit alcoholic finish.
  
  My notes: honey, flowers, butter, melon, eucalyptus, nuts and a bit of wood and leather.

  This is an oakmonster. An overoaked wine.
  It's a viscous and fatty wine with good acidity. Some primary Chardonnay character and grapefruit bitterness in the finish.

  An easy drinking wine which is not too heavy as some Chardonnay´s sometimes can be.
