About the wine
Tasting notes
Stone fruit with underlying citrus. The oak treatment has given it roasted and toasty characters, the secondary Malolactic ferment and stirring on yeast lees has given creamy richness, with a lovely crisp acidity to finish. Alcohol 12.7%

Expert review
Lovely citrus ans stone- fruits on the nose. followed by peaches and citrus fruit on the well-structured palate.
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.
