This Chardonnay is more round and slightly less fruity than the 2007 tasted here. Although same score they are different 2007 is more approachable with lively fruit and not that well integrated oak like in this 2005, which is rounder. I was surprised of the acidity there, which given its age still was quite visible and made it nicely refreshing. I supect it must have been artificially added :)).
