Vidal Reserve Series Chardonnay 2020

The winery writes "This elegant and distinctive wine offers exceptional quality and true regional identity. Beautifully fragrant notes of citrus and stone fruit combine on a complex and finely styled palate." 

Cameron Douglas MS writes "Varietal, ripe, fruity and classic with a bouquet of sweet oak and vanilla spice, roasted stone fruits and grapefruit. As the wine begins to open up in glass so too does the scale of complexity and detail. Dry, smooth, fleshy, fruity and varietal on the palate with flavours of fresh red apple and white peach, some quince and lemon, vanilla and toasty oak flavours. Fine wood tannins and medium+ acidity add texture, weight and foundation. Balanced and well made, ready to drink upon purchase and through 2024+."

Sam Kim writes "It’s attractively fruited and elegantly expressed on the nose showing white flesh peach, mango, nougat and roasted cashew aromas, followed by a finely textured palate delivering rounded mouthfeel and creamy texture. Well balanced by juicy acidity, finishing long and tasty."
