David Finlayson Chardonnay
$ 1999
Tasting notes
This is the fifteenth vintage of our Chardonnay. The wine is made from five different vineyards.
As with previous vintages, the wine shows an elegant minerality with lime-citrus, sourdough
and cinnamon flavours. The tight minerality keeps a wonderful acid grip on the palate
showing good aging potential. A floral note of wild, white flowers such as frangipani and
almond blossom is obvious on the front of the nose and follows through the palate. Likened by
many to the flavours found in cooler Burgundian and Chablis sites, the focus here is to make elegant wines.
The ideal accompaniment to foods such as paella, quail and pork
