Description

This Chardonnay has been given the name buttery because it is smooth, creamy and simply melts in your mouth. The beautifully integrated toasty oak results in flavours of brioche and vanilla, while still enabling the delightful ripe stone fruit characters to shine through.

The Taste Collection is a celebration of the generous and distinct flavours that have made Selaks wines so extraordinary and sought after for more than 85 years.

The grapes for this wine were direct pressed with no skin contact to preserve freshness. The juice was then clarified and transferred into a combination of tank and French oak barriques for barrel fermentation. After ferment the wine underwent malolactic fermentation then further left on yeast lees until racking and blending in December 2018. The final product is a buttery white wine, true to Chardonnay character, with undertones of fruit qualities renowned in the region.

Food pairing: Stunning with crayfish or pumpkin risotto.
