Moss Wood 2001 Chardonnay – Wine Advocate #148 Aug 2003 – Robert M. Parker, Jr.
From a drought year in Margaret River, the 2001 Chardonnay exhibits tremendous texture in addition to a perfume of white peaches intermixed with hazelnuts, minerals, and orange rind. It smells like a top-class Puligny-Montrachet from the likes of Domaine Leflaive. With good acidity, medium to full body, great fruit purity and clarity, and a long, pure finish, it should drink well for 2-3 years, possibly longer.
