Bottle from somewhere that I can't remember. It pours clear Chardonnay gold with a bubbly white head. The aroma is musty, funky, vinous, tart white grape, hay, dry oak, gooseberry, melon and a touch of sherbet. The taste is a touch dry to begin with, crisp, dry oak, light tannin, hay, lemon - lime, gooseberry, white grape, vinous, crisp Chardonnay, crunchy, light acidity and granny smith apple with a drying finish. Medium body and average carbonation. Nice white white wine character. Very drinkable. Quaffable.
