Tasting of chardonnay and pinot noir varietals, hosted by Zoom by Auriol Wines, Hampshire, UK. Interesting to be able to taste this wine at 9 years from the vintage. Medium gold colour, showing some ageing. Herby nose, mint, sage, not so much fruit showing, some oak. The palate is rich, cloying, green apples. The fruit opens in the glass slowly. This is clearly a very good wine, now at its peak of maturity, possibly slightly beyond.
