About the wine
Tasting notes
Aromas of ripe apples, pears, citrus zest, and toasted nuts, with subtle honeyed and floral notes. On the palate, it’s rich and creamy with flavours of baked orchard fruits, fresh lemon zest, and a strong mineral backbone. Its well-integrated acidity balances the wine’s richness, leading to a nutty, toasty finish with a hint of subtle oxidation. Complex, textured, and reflective of its limestone terroir, this is a vibrant, yet mature Chardonnay with depth and character.

Chardonnay
One of the most planted, versatile and popular white varieties in the world. As a stand alone grape, Chardonnay is not the most interesting, nor complex varietal out there...but in the hands of a great winemaker it can be turned into one of the world's greatest pleasures! From the best bubbles of Champagne, to the lean, unoaked and mineral expressions of Chablis and the opulent, oaked and complex whites of Burgundy, Chardonnay is responsible for making some of the greatest expressions of white wine on the planet.
