A Chardonnay on the reductive side with pear, apple, subtle smoke and oak spice aromas. It's medium-full bodied on the palate with spicy pear, toasty oak spice, and nutty flavours that are well-integrated. More spicy tones on the mid-palate with very good acidity. Long on the finish with spice and pear notes. Tasted Feb/2020.
