Sileni Estate Selection Straights Chardonnay 2018
Beautifully balanced
Beautifully balanced
Description
Dry
An elegant wine with ripe tropical and passion fruit aromas. The beautifully balanced palate leads to a fresh lingering finish.
The Straits Sauvignon Blanc is grown across a variety of soil types in Marlborough. Gravels provide tropical flavours, clay loams produce citrus notes and deep silty soils lift the aromatic quality. The best parcels are selected for this wine and harvested only when fully ripe.
Fruit for this reserve wine is destemmed and gently pressed, then cool fermented in stainless steel tanks to retain the pure fruit flavours. After ferment the wine was left for a period on yeast lees to develop texture and complexity.
In ancient Greece the Sileni were companions of Dionysus, the god of wine, vineyards and theatre. When there was something to be celebrated, the Sileni were always on hand to encourage enjoyment of delicious food, great wine and social interaction. Named in their honour, Sileni Estates produces a range of wines made to be great collaborators, with a talent for enhancing flavours and textures.
Food Pairing: Delicious with fresh fish or lightly spiced Asian cuisine
