A very enjoyable surprise
Dec 29, 2021,02:11 AM
at Christmas dinner....
an aged bottle of chardonnay that delivered a refreshing bouquet of peach,pear with a touch of citrus fruit and a corresponding full bodied palate of above fruit with enough acidity to delight the taste buds.The oak was hardly there,only,so well integrated into the flavours as to render only a suggestion of nuts at the finish.Drinking very well despite its age,as good as a well made aged bourgogne.
It complemented a seafood themed dinner of prawns, salmon, scallops,with some chicken----a good foil!
This old Ebel to round off the evening
all in all.a very pleasant Christmas evening
best
