Generous stylings, with plenty of winemaking influence. I’d be drinking it sooner rather than cellaring it myself. It has a sense of abundance even as a young wine.
Grapefruit, peach and caramel. Buttered toast, slightly smoky barrel work. Lees and some malo ensure body and texture. White oats and almond meal contribute a sense of savoury balance. Sumptuous Chardonnay. 93
