TASTING NOTES:

Medium – full bodied Chardonnay in the French Chablis Style. This is a fruit driven wine.   Redolent of flavours of citrus and stone fruit, with hints of minerality.Yellow-green in colour.  Citrus and vanilla on the nose and palate.   Crisp and elegant, a long finish with subtle hints of wood.
