WINE REVIEW
This is the first vintage of single varietal Chardonnay from Nutbourne, and it hass already gone on to win a couple of bronze medals (IWSC & UKVA).
It’s an unoaked Chardonnay, so the fruity characters of the grape really come through on the nose, with notes of green apples with lemon and hints of nectarine.
On the palate again it’s all about the fruit; good acidity with citrus and lots of tangy apple richness. Good length and dry finish.
A good example of a clean and tasty English Chardonnay.
