Middelvlei Estate Unoaked Stellenbosch Chardonnay 2011 76+ Points



Bright, pale straw with yellow reflections.

Clean, moderate plus intensity, very ripe with notes of passion fruit, pineapples and orange, barley.
Dry with dash residual sugar. juicy and concentrated, pineapples fruit glace, very high alcohol of 14.5% abv for an unwooded Chardonnay, low plus acidity, noticeable and not fully integrated, rich style with glossy finish, now until 2013+
Not in same league as very good 2010!
