Produced by a boutique winery, this Chardonnay is fermented in French barrels, offering a complex, balanced, and fresh, mineral-driven palate.

This beautifully poised 2021 barrel-fermented Chardonnay, has a complex nose of lime and ripe pear with a buttery undertone. The multi-layered palate is filled with deciduous fruit flavours and quality wood spices and livened by a crisp Burgundian acid.

TASTING NOTES

An elegant example of unwooded Chardonnay with minerality reminiscent of oyster shell, a vibrant taste of fresh saltiness, and a squeeze of lime, finishing with an elegantly coated texture on the palate.
