RockBare Chardonnay 2004

The nose is very fresh and very clean, with tantalising aromas of orange fruits and flinty minerality." The aroma brings to mind summer scenes of a freshly baked orange cake cooling on a kitchen bench, while hungry kids home from school try to steal a bite when mum turns her back." This summer citrus baking, together with a topping of apricots and loquats, makes it hard to linger too much on the nose, as the wine is soon rushed to the tasters' lips.""

Strong from start to finish, this wine meanders through the palate spectrum dispensing flavour along the way, similar to Santa throwing lollies at a Christmas Pageant." Free of the false, disguising flavors of dumb oak, the delightful hotchpotch of orchard fruits show their ripe, eclectic combination unhindered." Packed full of oranges, loquat, pear, and a rich glycerol coating, the mid-palate is completely rounded out, while the finish is all concise citrus, mineral and steel.
