Description
Colour: Light gold. Nose: The nose reveals layers of elegant raw almond creaminess, unfolding into nuances of nougat and persimmon. With time in the glass, the wine blossoms into an alluring perfume of orange blossom and white florals, framed by a finely etched oyster shell minerality and a delicate sea-spray salinity. Palate: Immense concentration meets striking precision on the palate. Layers of raw almond and delicate nougat richness are interwoven with vibrant orange zest and lime. A finely textured, creamy mouthfeel is balanced by a dense mineral backbone and exhilarating acidity, while oyster shell minerality and persistent sea-spray salinity carry the wine to a long, captivating finish.
Food Pairing
Chardonnay pairs well with oily, flaky fish, chicken breast and soft or semi soft cheeses.
