Aromas strongly suggest lemon zest tart, toasted coconut, roasted almonds, sour green olives, cardamom, yellow flowers and sweet marzipan. Palate
Suspend all expectations of “Chardonnay-ness.” The startling bouquet of tropical, spicy and savory tones — as well as the interplay of zestiness and creaminess on the palate — makes this is a multidimensional wine. The joyride of acidity from this wine is like a rollercoaster, it twists and turns with each sip, and leaves you salivating for another sip on the finish.”
