| TASTING NOTE: Really nice demure and tentativeness, shy and beautiful. Perhaps a note of tinned fruit but be patient. Just what I thought. Tight grains of wood working this way and that with orchard fruit green, cutting and biting. Proper bitters and sumptuousness, then length. Tons of tannin. A perfectly broad expression of chardonnay, at a junction of time, people and place. Drink: 2018-2022. Score - 92 (Michael Godel, winealign.com, July 17, 2017) |
