TASTING NOTE: Chardonnay and Riesling is an unconventional blend - but unconventional can be good. This wine blends 59% barrel-fermented and six-month-oaked Chard with unoaked Riesling and offers vivid peach, apple, pear, yellow cherry, citrus and vanilla notes. Made in an easygoing style, with a nicely tangy finish. Pair with pulled-pork sliders or fish and chips. (Vintages panel, Sept. 2017) |
