| Tasting Notes |
|
A blend of tank fermented and barrel fermented and aged Chardonnay. This wine has a lifted stonefruit aroma which is supported by the firm structure that the oak gives the wine. It has a complex palate combining peach characters with a creamy texture and dry finish. |
| Food Match |
|
We recommend matching this wine with pan fried snapper with tomato, olives and basil. (recipe available) |

|
Made from fruit grown on our home block on Ngatarawa Road, Bridge Pa. This vineyard is six years old and is planted in 100% clone 15 Chardonnay. We handpicked the best portion of the vineyard for our Salvare wines. |
