Palate

Neatly wound with steely acids, tangerine oil, limestone, poached pear and white flower juxtaposed with sunny orange marmalade, golden delicious apple, blanched almond and honeydew - our interpretation of a refreshingly crisp north Burgundy-styled Chardonnay sourced from the exotic Chardonnay Musqué clone.
