點擊次數：12789

The 2008 Chardonnay provides a moderate to intense, pleasantly wild and funky nose with notes of meal, pineapple, warm grapefruit, struck match, baking bread and nuts. The medium bodied palate is toasty and well textured with just enough viscosity, crisp acid and a long toasty finish. Approachable now, it should drink best 2011 to 2015+.

Bigger, rounder and more fleshed out in style. Plenty of ripe, tropical fruit on show, hints of watermelon and candied edges. Possibly not one for those modernists who prefer a more restrained take on Chardonnay. 13.5% abv. Richards Walford

Although not as concentrated nor as potentially long-lived as Neudorf’s Moutere bottling, this is still an excellent Chardonnay. Grilled pineapple and peach aromas lead the way, followed by ripe flavors and hints of graphite or wet stone. Drink this full-bodied, lush wine over the next year or two.——J.C.(4/1/2011)—— 90
