Tasting notes

This wine was a lot riper and shows more oak than the 2004-vintage. It seems to lack the final depth of the 04. Give it time to integrate the oak and see what happens. Yellow colour. The nose shows vanilla, oak, ripe fruits, some flowers and light spice. Young wine in the mouth. Fullbodied and too oaky at this stage. It is a riper style than the 04, still seems to have a little less concentration. The mouthfeel is very typical chardonnayish. The oak young and sweet and needs time to integrate. Fine acidity, although lower than the 04. Good length.
