A bit LESS old world than the prior 2014 vintage. More pronounced oak character, burnt popcorn mid palate, lack of malolactic brings a crisp, more unwieldy finish.

Nice Burgundian finesse. Oak treatment but no malolactic. Allows for that rich, oaky vanilla without that fat texture. Retains natural acidity and crisp texture. More food friendly and even keeled than many balls-to-the-wall-oaky chardonnays.
