Chardonnay
What a beauty. Initially the palate has a distinct waxy creamy texture with flavours of custard apple, almond milk and honeysuckle. The mid palate shows some nuttiness with a wet slate and a flinty texture, which follows through to a citrusy acid finish.
++
Light straw-green; a fragrant bouquet of white peach, grapefruit and lemon, the eight months in French oak not very obvious; the palate, too, is fruit-driven and juicy, with good drive and length. Rating 91 James Halliday
