Au Bon Climat Wild Boy Santa Barbara County Chardonnay 2021  £27.39

Au Bon Climat Wild Boy Santa Barbara County Chardonnay

"Fermented and aged for 11 months in French oak barrels from François Frères, with a small proportion of new oak. The Wild Boy version is deliberately made in a more opulent style. From Jim Clendenen but this does not say Au Bon Climat on the label.
Some savour and real raciness. A hint of a deep medicinal streak. No hurry to drink this! Proper wine."

Drink 2020 - 2024.
16.5 / 20 points.
