Forward and developed for a 2011 Yarra Valley Chardonnay. Fruit comes from the warmer Dixons Creek area on the Valley floor.
Peaches in syrup, apricot nectar, grilled nuts, unripe banana and wood spice. Slippery more than buttery in the mouth. Not much length to speak of. Washy sweet flavour departs soon after it hits. 88
