Picture shows 2014 but this is the 2012. A bit of a departure here for this producer. The palate on this 8-year-old delivers a generous mouthful of ripe, juicy, pineapple fruit, Finishes appropriately dry though and with solid structure. Could pass for a good California grower Chardonnay.

Grilled pears, lemon curd, toasted hazelnuts, chamomile. Mouthfilling with a trace of tannin and powdered sugar in the finish. Impressive and peaking nicely but should not be aged any longer.
