Given this was a touch over the hill, I really enjoyed it. Actually, this reminded me quite a lot of a hybrid of slightly over the hill White Burgundy and aged Pinot Gris (with much less acidity).
Very floral and a bit of perfume on the nose. Citrus, nuts, yellow apple on the palate.
Great value on this.

Lacking a bit of acidity relative to what I remember from when the wine was much younger, when I would have scored it higher. But still very pleasant. Spicy nose, moderately rich mid palate, great finish with loads of mineral. Similar in texture and flavor profile to a dry late harvest riesling, although from what I understand, it actually has little or no riesling in the blend.

I am frequently not a fan of Chardonnay, but found this enjoyable and easy-going, though I would have liked a little more acidity.
