Description
"Sumptuously flavoured and beautifully harmonious, this generously flavoured chardonnay offers plenty of ripe stone fruit and rockmelon flavours together with cedary oak complexity. The palate is silky smooth and fruit expressive, finishing long and creamy. A wonderful expression of elegant opulence, offering excellent value. At its best: now to 2018." Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, March 2015.
A stylish and elegant Chardonnay offering plenty of delicious flavours. The nose displaying hints of lemon, honey, biscuit and caramel makes this a very appealing wine.
Gently crafted with 50 per cent of the parcel receiving oak treatment and undergoing malolactic fermentation. This has helped produce a soft creamy palate with plenty of fullness. The flavours of clean, ripe stone-fruit, citrus and subtle nutty-spicy oak are seamlessly interwoven with a minerality thread that draws out its length. A beautifully refreshing mouthfeel makes you want to drink this wine now but with careful cellaring it will continue to develop well over the next three to four years.
Well matched with crab cakes, stuffed peppers or chicken fettuccine.
