Description

"Smooth, rounded and creamy, this is inviting on the nose showing ripe stone fruit, rockmelon and almond characters with a hint of vanilla notes. The palate is succulent and brightly expressed, offering pristine fruit flavours together with silky texture and nicely integrated acidity. The wine is friendly and very easy to enjoy. At its best: now to 2018." Sam Kim Wine Orbit

Intense white peach, nectarine and stonefruit on the palate with a hint of fig and lemon peel. the palate is soft and youthful, with notes of grilled hazelnuts and subtle oak from partial ageing in quality french oak barriques.

Food match: roast chicken stuffed with thyme, sage and lemon butter.

35% of this delightful chardonnay is fermented in new and one-year-old oak barrels with regular lees stirring for 9 months, which provides texture and mid-palate creaminess to the wine. the remaining 65% of the juice is fermented in stainless steel vats at cooler temperatures, resisting malolactic fermentation to retain freshness and the wine’s natural acidity.

Appellation: pays d'oc (languedoc, france)
