I very much like the texture of the middle weight flavors that possess both good density and minerality that become more apparent as the lingering and youthfully austere finish sits on the palate

There is both energy and refinement to the overtly mineral-inflected flavors thanks to the relatively finegrained tannins shaping the refreshing finish that is wrapped around a core of bright acidity

There is lovely complexity to the subtly spiced and distinctly earthy red currant and plum suffused nose

Re-tasting the 2019 Chardonnay Freedom Hill Vineyard

Bernard Burgaud, Cote Rotie other_regions_italy and all varieties are co-fermentedAgreeably fresh and spicy, with an aerial touch to the aromatics and a hint of cumin. Young at heart still, there are raspberry notes, a sappy fruitiness to the acidity and the tannins are very fine. Its neat and precise and drinking well now, theres no major hurry to drink up, but I'm not sure whether this will ever take on any great complexity.
