Pale yellow in colour. The wine has a nutty and savoury nose with ripe peach and nectarine fruits not far away. Maybe a touch of fig as well. The fruit and oak is woven together well.
The palate follows the theme - stone fruits glide softly over the palate with the oak and savoury characters in strong support. Acid also plays a supporting and freshening role and the wine finishes quite full and long.
This is probably at a cusp in its development. Secondary characters are definitely noticeable, while primary fruit is still present. At 6 years old, it still has a few to go, but is drinking well now. It depends on how developed you like your chardonnay.
Cheers
Allan.

Wine, women and song. Ideally, you can experience all three at once.
