Kingfisher Bay Marlborough Chardonnay 2020

Description

• Oaked
• Peach & mango
• Fresh pastry
• Silky mouthfeel

"Beautifully rounded and creamy, it's delightfully fruited with ripe peach, grapefruit, vanilla and roasted nut characters. The palate delivers succulent fruit flavours and silky mouthfeel, well supported by refreshing acidity, making it comforting and enjoyable. At its best: now to 2023" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Aug 2021

The bouquet displays fresh white peach, mango with a hint of vanilla. The palate shows more of a savoury influence with notes of fresh pastry and ripe citrus balanced with stone fruit flavours.

The 2020 Kingfisher Chardonnay grapes are sourced from the Marlborough region, famous for the production of expressive, fruit flavoured wines.

This wine was cool fermented in order to retain fruit flavour and freshness. A proportion was oak fermented and underwent malolactic fermentation to help add complexity, texture and palate weight.

Food Pairing: Perfect for drinking on its own or delicious with grilled chicken and crispy polenta chips.
