Noteringar:
2008-07-25 12:05 WA: The 2005 Chardonnay “Heytesbury” was partially wild yeast fermented along with partial malolactic fermentation. It was aged for 10 months in French oak. Light gold-colored, it offers an alluring perfume of toast, smoke, butter, hazelnuts, mineral, and tropical aromas. This leads to a medium-bodied, full-flavored Chardonnay with excellent depth and concentration. Drink it over the next 5-7 years. Vasse Felix is one of Margaret River’s pioneer wineries, founded in 1987. The fruit is all estate grown. Importer: Negociants USA, Napa, CA; www.vassefelix.com.au; Also tasted: 2006 Chardonnay “Adams Road” (84)
2008-07-25 12:05 IWC: By Josh Raynolds Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, September/October 2007, Issue #134 (Vasse Felix Chardonnay Heytesbury Margaret River) ($40) Light yellow. Pungent pear, peach and honeydew aromas are given depth by toasty lees. Spicy citrus zest-accented orchard fruit flavors are sweetened by suave oak spice. Chewy in texture and long and juicy on the clinging finish. Balances richness with energy in a highly attractive, ready-to-drink package. 91 points
