Domaine Deux Roches St. Véran 2007
| Clarity Colour | |
| Legs | Medium viscosity due to quite high alcohol content/ripeness levels. |
| Sniffle | |
| Condition | Artificial cork so can’t be corked! |
| Intensity | Decent intensity on the nose despite Chardonnay’s usual neutrality due to a high level of ripeness. |
| Age | Shows bright primary fruit, so youthful with no sign of any age. |
| Profile | Oaked: The first thing you smell isn’t fruit but the vanilla oak. Chardonnay has little personality of its own. Behind the oak some aromas of melon, peach and butter |
| Bibble | |
| Sweetness | Dry – all sugar converted to alcohol. |
| Acidity | 2 |
| Body | Medium to full |
| Profile | Ripe fruit with some buttery melon and citrus character. |
| Alcohol | 13.00 |
| Oak | Oak shows itself as spicy vanilla on the palate. The oak is nicely judged (not overdone) and well-integrated (balanced) into the wine |
| Length | 25 |
| Quibble | |
A classy Chardonnay with enough freshness to balance the richness and new oak. Acidity too low to mature long term so consume within 1 year.Oak shows itself as spicy vanilla on the palate. The oak is nicely judged (not overdone) and well-integrated (balanced) into the wine |
