"Whole-bunch pressed, ambient yeasts, one-third barrel fermented, full malo. A delicate bready, flinty aroma gives way to fresh melon and citrus and a delicate creaminess. Then surprisingly tight, even austere, on the palate, but more an indication of intensity and minerality than lack of fruit depth. Pretty serious and long for their first level Chardonnay. Oak very much in the background, giving greater structure rather than any oak flavour. Upright and elegant." - 17/20points,Jancis Robinson
