The Wine Front
“It’s the little brother to the more expensive Chardonnay. Little brothers are most often superior, to my way of thinking. It’s juicy and crunchy, packs some flavour and most excellent flinty texture, along with a sort of lemon rind bitterness. A little toast, grapefruit, stonefruit, a mouth-watering intensity, and a chalky, almost tannic finish of excellent length. It offers complexity, and drinks beautifully right now. It sits right in the sweet spot between out-and-out sophistication and pure juicy drinkability. It’s flashed with toast and honeysuckle and almonds but the mainstay flavours are more in the stone fruit, fennel and pear realms. It feels, tastes and finishes in beautiful fashion.

Mid-yellow with a richly complex nose showing a good balance between fruit and artefact. Bready lees, nutty barrel interaction, stone-fruit flavours of richness, concentration and just the right amount of fruit sweetness.
