Limelight Robertson Chardonnay & Pinot Noir 2010 85 Points

Limelight Robertson Chardonnay & Pinot Noir 2010 85 Points


Clear, bright, onion skin with slight coppery reflections, medium concentration and low viscosity, no evidence of gas or sediment.

Clean, low plus intensity with notes of lime and delicate citrus zest, cranberry, beer shandy / leesy note, some limestone minerality, flirt of old wood.

Dry with residual sugar well offset by high natural malic acidity, linear profile, low alcohol(12 ABV) new flavours of just ripe white grapes, crunchy / sherbety, lean without being facile, rather steely, fresh and fine lenght and complexity, now until 2014.
