This vibrant barrel-fermented Chardonnay releases elevated lemony acid and almond tones on initial sip. Top notes of lychees and grapefruit unfurl on breathing. Barrel-driven oaky brioche & almond flavours provide length and persistence to the primary varietal attributes. It is a creamy, warming and fulsome Chardonnay, generous in aromas and flavours.
It is worth enjoying now but will also reward some bottle sleep.
