Description
The Captain’s Reserve Chardonnay is a masterful expression of elegance and complexity, crafted to highlight the very best of this noble varietal. On the nose, vibrant aromas of ripe peach and mango are beautifully complemented by delicate notes of orange blossom. The palate delivers a creamy texture with layers of vanilla, pineapple, and a touch of oak, rounded off by a fresh, lingering minerality.
To preserve the Chardonnay’s varietal purity, no malolactic fermentation was conducted. Instead, the wine was left on extended lees contact for 270 days, with regular stirring to build depth and complexity. This meticulous process has resulted in a wine that is both vibrant and sophisticated.
Perfect to enjoy on its own or paired with a range of dishes, The Captain’s Reserve Chardonnay shines alongside roast chicken or a rich mushroom risotto. Experience the essence of craftsmanship in every sip with this standout Chardonnay.
