TN: Moorooduc Estate Chardonnay 2013
Posted: Fri Oct 02, 2020 8:15 pm
Purchased from the cellar door in late 2016. Yellow in colour, and slightly tending to gold.
Quite a mixed nose, with slightly developed yellow peach and grapefruit sitting with vanilla, cedar, toasted grains and a whiff of butter. The palate is an equally mixed blend of fruit and savoury characters, with good supporting acid, and surprising intensity. Long finish.
I'm not sure about this one - I suspect it won't improve, and may have been better a year ago. Interesting, but not quite there, and that could be my fault for leaving it too long.
Cheers
