Racy green apple, pineapple and grapefruit, with apricot, almond and floral flourishes, illuminate the nose. Citrus characters spread over the palate, embellished by melon, peach, pear and kiwi. The texture, bright on entry, has a long, crisp finish.

At the time of bottling, alcohol measured 12%, residual sugar 3 grams per litre, titratable acidity 7.43 grams per litre and pH 3.27.

This vintage will drink well through 2026.

Vegan friendly.

Food Companions: Serve near 10° C with roast chicken, falafel, tempura sushi or mildly spiced Indian foods.

There’s everything you want in this beautiful unoaked chardonnay matured 10 months in stainless steel tanks. The fruit aromas are expressive on the nose at first—peach, melon, pineapple—then fennel seed and mineral notes show up adding a layer of complexity. A medium-bodied, almost creamy wash of lemon Meyers and grapefruit flavours wakes up the palate, followed with orchard fruit notes and a mineral, mouth-watering, slightly chalky tasty finish. This is delicious on its own but it will be spectacular with scallop ceviche or coconut shrimps.
