Trefethen Oak Knoll District of Napa Valley Chardonnay 2018 375ml

Description

Decanter: “A delicious, enticing Chardonnay which draws you into the glass with its fresh lemon rind and pith characters, balanced by a touch of perfectly judged oak sweetness. Very textural, showing strident fruit and a juicy finish.”Wine Enthusiast: “This is an elegant, classically styled Chardonnay, brimming in structure and a light touch of ripeness. Green apple, stone and apple blossom tones rise to the fore of the nose and palate. It’s low in oak and supple in texture.” Wine & Spirits: “Buzzing with grapey freshness, this simple, unfettered chardonnay follows a narrow path. It impresses with clarity rather than weight, a bright, light and mouthwatering wine that’s all about simple pleasures. Pour it on its own, or with pan-roasted lemon sole.”Winery: “Aromas of pineapple, apple, and Meyer lemon are layered with orange peel and pear notes. It’s full-bodied, structured, and balanced with fresh acidity. Nuances of crème brûlée and vanilla lead to a smooth and lengthy finish.This cool-climate, bright Chardonnay is perfect for grilled or steamed fish and fresh vegetables. It is also a great companion for lightly cooked shellfish like crab and prawns. For a more spicy pairing, Winery Chef Chris Kennedy suggests serving this wine with our Chardonnay-Steamed Mussels with Calabrian Chili Broth and Crusty Bread.”Bottle375ml, corkVarietal100% ChardonnayAlcohol13.3%Aging9 months in 13% new oakRegionNapa Valley, California
