Wine Shop Review: This world-renowned wine shows peachy tropical fruit and melon characters on the nose, with a hint of citrus freshness and judicious use of oak. The palate is generous and soft with full, ripe tropical flavors folded into a creamy backdrop that is beautifully structured with a long satisfying finish.
Personal Review: Initial smelling led me to notice a strong perfumey and peachy scnet. Aerating and swirling the wine caused the perfumey scent to intensify and surprisingly did away with the peachy scent that I had noticed prior to aerating the wine. My initial impression of the Chardonnay during the tasting was again that of peach but the flavor went away during the mid palate and finish ultimately leaving me with a light, refreshing, citrusy wine.
Note: I did not consume this wine with food.
