Yellow straw color. Attractive aromas and flavors of fresh apple tart with powdered sugar and Creme Anglaise, honey cream, cheddar, and plantain with a silky, crisp, fruity medium-to-full body and a seamless, appealing, medium-length finish revealing accents of poached green apple, lemon granita, hint of caramel, and magnolia with no oak flavor. A very tasty and appetizing French Chardonnay beautifully poised to be a go-to sipper or pairing partner with poultry.
