Note di degustazione
The 2010 Estate Chardonnay is now fully savory and evolved, with clothy notes of pressed linen, beeswax, white flowers, nuts and biscuits. In the mouth, all aspects come together as one—the fruit has been so permanently embossed with structure that it's hard to know where one starts and the other finishes. The acidity that laces these aspects together has kept form, but it has shed its intense race and pace, providing us with a more sedate experience. This is lovely.

Deep gold. Fully evolved nose. Green-fruit flavours and the fruit and acidity are a little separate now. But it’s still a concentrated, respectable wine. I wouldn’t hold on to it but I’m enjoying it today. (JR)
Presenting a deep lemon hue, the 2010 Chardonnay Estate continues to provide a round, supple offering while still being no more than medium body. There's a creamy texture to this, and it's certainly showing its development in its light, almond-meal characters. There's some phenolic grip, but to be honest, it's a bit drying. If you have this in your cellar, I'd think about finding a night to open it soon.
