Tasting Notes:
Aroma: Aromas of ripe tropical fruits, such as pineapple and mango, mingle with hints of citrus zest and delicate floral notes. Subtle oak nuances add complexity, with notes of vanilla and a touch of toasted hazelnut.
Palate: The palate is rich and creamy, with flavors of ripe stone fruits, including peach and apricot, balanced by vibrant citrus acidity. Buttered toast and oak spice flavors from barrel aging contribute depth and texture, while maintaining a sense of elegance and finesse.
Finish: The finish is long and lingering, with a harmonious blend of fruit, oak, and acidity. A touch of minerality adds freshness and complexity, leaving a lasting impression.
Serving Recommendations:
Serve slightly chilled at around 10-12°C (50-54°F) to showcase its full range of aromas and flavors.
Pair with a variety of dishes, including roasted chicken, seafood pasta, or creamy risotto, as well as soft cheeses like Brie or Camembert.
The wine’s versatility also makes it suitable for enjoying on its own as an apéritif or alongside light appetizers.
While enjoyable upon release, this Chardonnay can also benefit from a few years of bottle aging to develop additional complexity and depth.
