I wasn't that fussed on the label. It doesn't have the jump off the shelf appeal.
The contents however are a different story. The words persistent, soft and delicate immediately spring to mind. This is a wine which lets the fruit sing. Nicely balanced, the characters of an attractive melony Chardonnay are captured. Some textural interest but a little more fruit punch would easily raise its status. Oak is in check without stealing the limelight.
A very good drop and decent value.
