Chardonnay Passion
-- Parker: Bottled in August last year, the 2018 Chardonnay 'Passion' opens pure, fresh and complex on the reduced and focused, rather more mineral than fruity nose that nevertheless displays ripe and intense white fruit with lemon aromas and notes of crushed limestone. On the palate, this is a dense, very intense and juicy as well as tightly woven Chardonnay with remarkable grip and freshness for 2018. This is a terroir wine par excellence, and the structured finish is long, salty, nicely bitter and tannic, indicating excellent aging potential. I never thought 2018 would have brought such delightful Chardonnays. Tasted in January and February 2020. 93/100
