Wine Description
This Chardonnay presents a bright lemon colour in the glass. Aromas open with citrus, grapefruit, and apple layered with subtle leesy notes, toasty oak, and a whisper of brioche. On the palate, it delivers flavours of mandarin, yellow cherries, and pear, supported by butterscotch and mineral undertones. The medium-plus body is finely textured with a lightly creamy mouthfeel, balanced by fresh acidity. The finish is long, elegant, and laced with saline minerality.
