Yalumba, Chardonnay, Eden Valley, 2024
Pale gold with green highlights. Mineral lead, white flowers with flinty spikes, light fig, easy cookie dough oak and almond biscotti. Tight and just mid weight. Pithy citrus leads to a briny, dry finish. Green apple to melon with sweeter kisses of oak. One for those that like theirs racy and lean.
