Tasted by:
(at Decanter's April 2017 issue South African Chardonnay over £7.99 Tasting, 30 Nov 2016)
Drinking Window: 2017 - 2017
Fat, broad, comparatively evolved style with notes of marzipan and toasty oak. The palate has some complexity but lacks energy and vivacity. A softening acidity highlights hints of butterscotch and savoury lemon on the finish.
