A Best Buy
TASTING NOTE: Here's a bright, firm, polished chardonnay from the Tawse/Redstone winemaking time, with classic, fairly lifted aromas of apple, grapefruit, light barrel smoke and toast. Also some nutty complexity. It's light to medium bodied, crisp, and refreshingly tart-edged without being austere. This is a very pretty, tender but not soft chardonnay. Very well made.
