卡諾博拉斯霞多麗干白葡萄酒

點擊次數(shù)：2990

The tightly-knit, rich, ripe, potentially complex 1998 Chardonnay possesses good weight and underlying acidity, but it has yet to reveal much complexity or nuances. It offers ripe, honeysuckle, pear-like fruit along with a touch of oak and intriguing floral scents, but it requires another 6-12 months of bottle age. It should drink well for 3-4 years.

I was impressed with the gorgeous, medium to full-bodied 1996 Chardonnay. The wine displays a honeyed, buttery, floral nose, rich, concentrated flavors, zesty underlying acidity, and outstanding purity. It is a beautifully made wine that could easily pass for a premier cru from Burgundy's Cote d'Or. This is an outstanding effort from this winery on the slopes of Mount Canobolas in New South Wales.Importer: Peter Weygandt, Weygandt-Metzler, Unionville, PA; tel (610) 486-0800
