Good colour. Clearly noticeable aromas of white fruits. The wine was ok.
A Chardonnay with a very dense colour. The Catena Alta Chardonnay shows exotic floral hints of jasmine. This 2016 is quite like the previous vintage.
We drank it with a spicy rice.
Het is mooi goudgel van kleur. Bij het ruiken rook ik aan aroma's van honing en stuifmeel. Ik gebruikte het als een lekkernij.
