Tasting Notes
Roasted hazelnut on the nose, with some reductive notes, as well as pear, melon, and a nice oak character. It is fresh and compact on the palate, with good density and traction, the oak gives dynamism and frame to the power, and minerality and nerve push the wine to great length. It is not a typical fat Chardonnay.
