MORE INFORMATION:
Rich and creamy wine with layers of vanilla, butter and stone fruit. Full bodied wine with a soft and lengthy finish
I paired this wine with an eisbein/lamb potjiekos recipe of myself. The fruit typicity balanced with delicate hints of oak in this Chardonnay is complimented by the smokey flavours of the eisbein. Both combines to a luscious mouth explosion.
