En nariz mucha más ahumados, tabaco, humo. En boca menos madera que en nariz, para guardar unos añitos.

Oak completely dominates the palate. Isn't this supposed to be old world? Just not my thing.

Remarkably good Chardonnay IGP from the Ardeche. Lightly Oaked with MLF. Bright, zesty, and very smooth mouthfeel. Balanced and refreshing.

For the price a great Chardonnay! moderate acidity, subtle oak age.

Light honey and yellow fruits (peach, apricot) on the nose, light and nice mild fruits on the palate, mild oak and creaminess, mild acidity. Very nice and drinkable alone.
