Medium yellow with a slight greenish hue, this is a medium weight wine with a slight toast element that compliments the assorted , apple, ripe pear and stone fruits. Slightly creamy in texture this has a core of engaging white tree and stone fruit flavors and an ever so slight nuttiness on the finish; that with a little more time in bottle will become more pronounced. Refreshing and vibrant this is drinking beautifully right now, with just the right amount of oak to add a roundness to the palate; this is the type of Chardonnay that we love to drink as it’s so food friendly, yet it’s got the richness for the cocktail beverage venue. This should continue to show well over the next 12 months with ease. The six bottle pricing makes this a terrific buy.

Medium-bodied and focused, with tasty orchard fruit notes backed by a hint of grilled hazelnut on the finish. Has a nice creamy texture. Drink now.
