Operation Drinkup of my New World Chardonnays is still proceeding very well with little sign of over-aged tired wines. This example was positively singing "drink me" and delivered a lovely balance of melony butterscotch, oak and alcohol. Drunk on this occasion as an aperitif but probably better with food

Drank alongside a Paul Cluver and for me this was a bit rustic and obvious - still a very decent wine though with plenty of upfront fruit - think highly alcoholic melon!

Casual Drink 2 (Maiu Restaurant - Damansara Perdana): Alcohol :: 14.5% Expressive nose of butter, nutty, green herbs with ripe yellow fruits core, quite compelling with a hint of citrus notes too. Very rich on the palate, almost creamy in texture and flavors with light alcoholic tones, but considered very well in check for a 14.5% alcohol content. Hot, spicy finish. Buy - No.
