Michael, Peter - Chardonnay Ma Belle-Fille 2015

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "Bursting forth with extravagant tropical and floral notes, the 2015 Chardonnay Ma Belle Fille has nuances of honey-nut pastry (baklava), ginger, cedar and spice cake. Medium-bodied, the pineapple and passionfruit flavor layers are lifted by a seamless backbone and supported with a decadent creaminess, finishing long and spicy. 2,304 cases were made."

JAMES SUCKLING: "This is really lively and energetic with aromas and flavors of sliced lemons and green apples. Some lime, too. Full-bodied, layered and minerally. Undertones of hot stones and lemongrass. Love the driven finish of freshness. Drink or hold."

WINE SPECTATOR: "Light oak, pear, apple, melon and spice notes gain weight while remaining nimble and refined. This tilts more toward delicacy and nuance than sheer power. Drink now through 2020. 2,320 cases made. — JL"

JANCIS ROBINSON: "But inversion layer means it gets warmer because less fog. Wild yeast, no acid adjustment. Sweet, floral nose. Quite solid and burgundian. Racy and transparent."
