The white wine has proved once and for all wine lovers don’t need to fork out a fortune to enjoy a good drop.
The fan favourite Chardonnay has been described as ‘rich, layered nose with both fresh, crisp fruit notes and softer creamier aromas’.
‘Subtle bouquet of freshly sliced lemon and white flowers. Crisp, clean and lively with subtle mealy complexity and cashew nut that builds to the finish. Elegant and refined,’ one judge previously said.
The bottle pairs perfectly with duck.
