“The 2011 Chardonnay sees 8 months in oak…It is well defined and understated on the nose, unfurling to reveal fresh lime, red apple and a touch of crisp pear…The palate is effervescent…with a fine thread of acidity that counterbalanced the ripe mango…It has such brightness and clarity on the finish that makes this irresistible. Drink now to 2020…When Hamilton Russell gets it right, they hit bullseye.”
