About the wine
Tasting notes
Oyster brine and sweet ocean spray colour delicate white florals and white peach. Palate is creamy and seductive in texture, rounded with sweet nectar-like fruit, yet it has restraint and wonderful composure. It ends with creme anglaise and white peach. Yum!

Expert review
A nose with notes of mineral reduction, acacia and plenty of Chablis typicity… delineated and utterly delicious middle weight flavors… excellent depth and persistence on the markedly dry but not especially austere finale… a Châtains of finesse. OUTSTANDING
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.
