Vinaceous, Shakre, Chardonnay, Margaret River, 2018

Opens with a distracting leafy aroma to almost Earl Grey tea bergamot citrus element, nectarine with soft yoghurt creaminess in the background. Crisp and just medium bodied without complexity. Light stone and tropical fruit flavour with lingering mandarin citrus. Some grip and balance but ultimately finishes thin and short.
