Eurobor’s Tűzkő line deserves a last chance and I have a Chardonnay 2007 anyway, so I didn’t hesitate to give it to them.
This Chardonnay has a deep brassy color with grape juice aromas on the nose with a tutti-frutti accent, relatively dense. It’s a bit tired on the palate, medium-bodied, not fresh, woody (but not in an oaky-vanilla way), with a wet hay character and later with grapefruit. Some unripe vegetables come through the slightly bitter mid-palate supported by harsh acidity.
According to the winery’s website this wine ages well but if you ask me, this wine’s already over its peak.
