Cellarhands Brokenback Chardonnay Magnum 2021
Wine Details
- Vintage 2021
- Type White Wine
- Variety Chardonnay
- Tasting Notes
Matured in French puncheons (500L) for eight months - 40% new and the balance in 3 year old oak. Add this to the time on yeast lees we experience the rich macaroon and ‘Arrowroot’ biscuit savouriness with the fresh aromas of nectarine, marmalade and orange blossom. The palate shows the influence of oak with a full bodied, rich style of wine exhibiting a nutty, butter character and a charred orange rind fruit profile. The slight phenolics of the wine give texture to a complex and intense chardonnay. Drinking well until about 2025. Food pairing, you can step things up with more richness. Try braised Spanish style chicken with orange, paprika and thyme.
