Tons of yellow fruit, lemon, mandarin orange, and mineral. Creamy palate with a long finish.

Light gold in colour with a medium intense nose.

The taste is more expressive than the nose.

Positives: A well-integrated Chard balancing the oak, fruit & minerality. Medium toasted oak, light butter with lemon, green & golden apples, pink grapefruit, melon and limestone. Medium body to medium+ with good acidity and a very long length.

Negatives: None

Out of 5 stars, I rated this wine: 4

Rich, ripe and round, with a nose of creamed corn, butterscotch, sweet cream and baked apple/pear. The palate is unctuous and full with a creamy mouthfeel, and flavours of roasted corn, banana, ripe pineapple and baked orchard fruit with a black licorice finish. Mouthwatering acidity keeps this wine fresh, but it is an opulent and indulgent wine not for the faint of heart.
