"A complex and racy nose of green fruits, apples, grapefruit and blood oranges jump out of the glass to present a refreshing and unexpectedly elegant and minerally bouquet. This is not archetypal Californian Chardonnay, but soft, sophisticated and fabulously complex. The richness of the fruit is complimented by a steely minerality and a genuine richness provided by the careful oak ageing and extended time on its lees."
