Indulge yourself Picardy Chardonnay 2005
A stylish French-accented chardonnay from Pemberton, WA, which is more about complexity and texture than simple fruit. The nose has wholemeal and nut touches to peach character, with a thread of gingerbread oak and a hint of burnt match. The palate is seamless, fine and lingering with a tasty, lip-smacking finish. Ageing? Drink over three years. Food ideas: Salmon; soft cheeses. ***** Drink: 2006 – 2010
