Give this full bodied, yet refreshing Chardonnay a splash in a decanter and the wine will shine with beautiful flavours of peaches, almonds and crème brûlée
This alluring wine displays aromas of yellow peach, lemon cream, pear and mango, along with French oak-inspired notes of brioche, sweet baking spices and crème brûlée. The luxurious peach and pear notes are echoed on the silky palate, where they mingle with layers of lush nectarine apricot, clove, and lemongrass, with graceful underlying acidity carrying the wine to a long resonant finish.
The wine was 95% barrel-fermented with the balance in stainless-steel tank, then aged in a mix of new and neutral French oak barrels.
