This is an elegant Chardonnay, with a scent of lemon, mandarin orange & hints of pine needles, complemented by a crisp finish on the palate. A lovely cold, wet winter in 2009 allowed for good, even budding of the vineyards during spring, & then the beautiful, warm, sunny days in summer resulted in great flavor & colour development in the berries. Full, fruit flavours & soft tannins with good aromatics & ideal acidity made 2010 & excellent vintage. Another great year for Chardonnay! Harvested from the 26th of January 2010 until the 8th of February 2010.
