The Montsable Chardonnay has a bright yellow gold hue and seductive scents of blossom and cinnamon spice. A remarkable melange of pears, peach, honey toffee, cream and vanilla (from a short spell of oak ageing) on the palate. Furthermore it is beautifully balanced with ripeness, acidity, length and real structure. Overall, a very classy Chardonnay.
This incredibly popular Chardonnay from Limoux, Langedoc takes its inspiration from traditional Burgundy styles; 20% of the wine is kept in oak staves to introduce a suggestion of vanilla, whilst the remaining 80% is kept in stainless steel to preserve adequate freshness. The grapes themselves are sourced from the cooler, higher-altitude valleys of Limoux, allowing for a slower ripening period and good levels of acidity.
Suitable for Vegans.
ABV: 12.5%
Excellent flavour at a excellent price
