Tasting notes
Vibrant in the glass. Almonds, nuts and a touch of marshmallow on the nose. On the palate there is an incredible laser-like acidity. Focused and with an incredible purity of fruit, this is all about finesse and poise. The finish goes on for minutes and hints at remarkable things to come. Stunning.

The 2014 Cloudburst Chardonnay possesses lovely ginger-laced pears, allspice and apricot notes with a savory meat, toast and hazelnut undercurrent. The tightly-wound, medium-bodied palate is both elegant and intense, with an almost grainy texture and alluring minerality coming through on the very long finish.
