2011 Ten Minutes by Tractor McCutcheon Vineyard Chardonnay

ten minutes mccutcheon chardBroader and more intense than the Wallis Vineyard. It’s powerful, nutty and savoury but still relatively light on its feet. A wash of leesy cheese, honeysuckle, stonefruit and struck match on the nose.

The palate has a feeling of unity to it but scintillating acidity provides plenty of shape and form. Compact with a little phenolic grip crimping the finish. Grapefruit and mineral length provide a fitting conclusion. 93 Very Good
