2004 Peter Michael Chardonnay
distinctly intense, muscular and hedonistic. Aromas of roses, lychee nuts and citrus blossom come to mind with a background of minerals and spices, accompanied by a final touch of nutmeg and cedar. Full-bodied and creamy, the palate displays a rich, sensual, seamless texture. High natural acidity and notes of brioche and pain grillé complete the mouth feel.
