Note di degustazione
The 2016 Chardonnay Edward James Estate is creamy, textured and enveloping, with all of it elements in the right place. Almond, lemon confit, white flowers and apricot all develop in the glass, but it is the wine's textural richness and plushness that stand out most. Even with all of its intensity, the 2016 preserves terrific energy.

The 2016 Chardonnay Edward James Estate charges forth with robust apricot preserves, guava and pineapple paste scents followed up by croissant, honey-nut and yeast extract accents plus a waft of lemongrass. Full-bodied and richly fruited, the palate provides powerful tropical and savory flavors with a racy line of freshness and a very long, toasty finish. 484 cases were made.
The 2016 Chardonnay Edward James Estate is rich, creamy and inviting, with terrific presence and length. The apricot pit, peach, chamomile and mint notes all flesh out in this supple, expansive Chardonnay. The Edward James often needs time to fully come together. I expect that will be the case here as well.
