Smells very nice. The wine deals vanilla bean, nutmeg, musk and floral notes. This isn’t a Chardonnay for the tropically inclined. There’s fruit here, but it’s taut (think unripe pear, sour apple, peach pit, that sort of thing). Sparse on the fluff overall. Imported by Pacific Wine Partners. ——D.T.(12/1/2005)—— 86
