The wine is deep gold in colour. Ripe, elegant nose of moderate+ intensity; aromas of butter, toast, smoke, yellow plum, peach and sunflower seeds. On the palate, the wine is dry, with high warming alcohol, medium mild acidity, a full body, moderate fruit concentration on the medium+ finish. Interesting and quite typical Chardonnay from Napa; full-bodied and voluminous on the palate with a mouth-coating structure. Ready for drinking with potential for further ageing (4-5 years).
