Plenty of colour, bright yellow, with a very lively yet also full bouquet. Fresh ripe citrus along with some plum, gently oaked, with some tension. But this is a fine, full flavoured chardonnay, with a little hillside touch, and a sensual texture. A very promising beginning! Now the wine is bottled the colour has toned down to a medium lemon yellow. It is easy to visualise the dry stony soil from the bouquet, though there is some riper stone fruit beneath. This is an elegant, classy hillside wine of medium density.
