Great medium bodied chardonnay. Pours clear, slight yellow tinge. Aromas of cashew, melon and struck match. On the palate, more melon, white peach and dried fig, held together with a gentle acidity.

Elegant nose of peach, almond, melon, grapefruit, and nutty vanilla oak. Some struck match and other sulphides in the background. Wonderfully fruity and aromatic with extended airing; it sounds silly but is shows some flavour similarities with German Riesling.
Taut and powerful on the palate, glistening with acid. Drives long through the back palate with a nutty, savoury finish.
Opinion: Lots of potential. In need of some more time to soften and fill out with more expression. I like where this is heading.

Another very smart chardonnay from Hoddles Creek. Perfect with home cooked roast chicken.
