Hess Select Chardonnay 2001

California, United StatesFairly rich buttery, toasty, citrus aromas with pineapple floral hints. More buttery, oily textures with vanilla and baked apple flavours. Quite soft and warm on the finish with a touch of sweetness. Fine but could use some cooler fruit characters and acidity to join the new fresher style of chardonnay.Tasted: 31 August 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
