that is an assumption

Asian spices and candied rose develop a vibrant mineral quality in the glass

On the plus side there is good vibrancy and detail to the delicious middle weight flavors that possess slightly better fruit/tannin balance though the finish is noticeably warm

round and utterly delicious medium-bodied flavors possess a sleek muscularity and solid intensity

thanks to integrated tannins

Kumeu River, Rays Road Chardonnay other_regions_italy that is an assumptionQuite a 'stony' nose and already lots of fun. Seems more than a year more evolved than the 2019. At a very nice stage now. Fresh and minerally and super crisp but quite satisfying and not meagre at all. Super clean. Just right for current drinking. If only all white burgundy offered this accessibility (I'm talking both price and taste). Really quite long. A neat, complete wine. At the moment I prefer this to the more intense but unformed Rays Road
