Pegasus Bay 2008 Chardonnay

94Points

Nutty notes on the nose of this chardonnay lead to dried apple, pear, honey and peach aromas. Look for oak spice, buttered popcorn and excellent mineral complexity. In the mouth, it is everything you could ever want in an excellent chardonnay. Rich and creamy without excessive oak flavour, a hint of bitterness appears on the mid-palate, but the crisp acidity balances both the fruit and oak. A very enjoyable glass of wine.
