{"product_id":"tw-wines-gisborne-chardonnay-2024","title":"TW Wines Gisborne Chardonnay 2024","description":"\u003cp\u003eThere are no words that can convey the challenges of the 2023 season – and the fact that we were able to harvest some beautiful Chardonnay at the end of it, to create this celebration of Gisborne Chardonnay, is a true testament to the resilience and dedication of everyone involved in growing the fruit, harvesting it, and making this fruit into wine. This Chardonnay is a celebration of fruit that survived the impact of cyclone Gabrielle. Just like the brilliant sunrise after Gabrielle departed, this wine is resplendent with gold and pink – unctuous golden peach and intense pink nectarine flavours delight the mouth after the nose is enticed with intoxicating aromas of jasmine and cream. Wonderfully rich on the palate, this wine has great length, finishing softly with hints of hazelnut and cream. Created for sharing joy. Excellent acid structure and flavour balance will ensure this Reserve Chardonnay cellars well for at least eight years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce gently pressed, the juice was slightly clarified before being fermented in American and French barriques. Aromatic and wild yeast along with cool temperatures during ferment maximised the intensity of tropical fruit flavour as well as the complexity and integration of the oak. Full malolactic fermentation gives creamy richness and wonderful length. This wine was traditionally fined with fresh skim milk prior to bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFood Pairing: Enjoy this seductive Chardonnay with creamy seafood pasta, smoked chicken or salmon and caramelised roasted vegetables with feta and tahini drizzle.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RedWhite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50415378628925,"sku":"TWWCHA23-E","price":119.94,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/9211\/5773\/files\/25788-1.jpg?v=1738109970","url":"https:\/\/www.blackmarket.co.nz\/products\/tw-wines-gisborne-chardonnay-2024","provider":"Black Market","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
