Marlborough Chardonnay - Cloudy Bay
€27.80
A great and deliciously savoury chardonnay wine from this famous New Zealand winery, made from carefully selected grapes. A concentrated wine with notes of apple and pear. A fine citrus acidity delivers freshness and leads to a long and appealing finish.

The grapes were hand-picked and carefully sorted. After gentle pressing, the juice was settled and racked before being transferred to French oak barriques. After the fermentation, the wine rested in the barrels for 11 months before blending. 21% of the wine went through malolactic fermentation.
