2007 “the Bartondale” Reserve Chardonnay. Cool harvest fruit carefully fermented in French Barriques and matured in the barrels for 11 months has produced aromas of ripe tropical fruits, yeast, oatmeal and elegant toasty French oak. The palate has great complexity, lively acidity, yeasty, nutty, and buttery with a long clean finish. In a word? Exquisite!
