Year-in and year-out, one of our very favorite Chardonnays. This Meaursault-like wine's aromas are dominated by rich hazelnuts and spice. Untypically, the flavors are not particularly fruit-driven, with the roasted nuts more prominent than the apricot and tropical fruit components. Good balancing acidity, oaky finish. - HK 2002-11-04
