Diemersdal Chardonnay Reserve 2011
Notes of chocolate, vanilla and créme caramel integrated gently with aromas of tropical exotic fruit. A rich, buttery mouth-feel ending with beautiful extraction of fruit and elegant acidity.

Carefully crafted 07 (****1/2vstars) raises bar, more intensity, showier than 06. Oak still plays big role, gives roasted nut, shortbread veneer, but piercing lime/citrus peel focus keeps it fresh, lively. Easy 4+ yr future. Natural ferm/11 mths new Fr cask. (Platter 2009) |
