VINTAGE:
2017

MORE INFORMATION:
Light yellow pale straw colered with a slightly greenish glint. Medium viscosity with a great glittering. Nose: It opens with light yellow apple/pineapple/peach flavours with a concentration of grapefruit, riper citrus mixed with a river stone minerality. It finished with a silky noise that gives you already the feeling that we are talking about a cool climate style of Chardonnay that is focussed on the elegant, refreshing style. Palate: On the palate, fleshiness is matched by mellowness, and they are subtle integrated in each other. A complex refreshing limy style of Chardonnay with a little nuttiness/white pepper accent from the oak barrels. Soft, elegant and medium bodied with a dry finish.

Grilled swordfish, chicken or even gamebirds
