The 2013 Chardonnay Estate from Mount Eden is a youthful classic, wafting from the glass with a complex nose of preserved lemon, hazelnut cream and green pear, subtly framed by a discrete application of new oak. On the palate, it's full-bodied, satiny and textural, with excellent concentration and a long finish. The 2013 is more overtly structural and angular at this early stage than the suave 2014, but only time will tell which is ultimately superior.
