2013 Higher Plane Reserve Chardonnay

Brilliant pale gold in colour. The nose is complex & vibrant offering fresh notes of grapefruit, mandarin, jasmine, pecan, fig & petrichor. On the palate, seductive white stone-fruit, cantaloupe & citrus rind flavours are enhanced with hints of brioche, hazelnut & a distinctive thread of briny mineral drive. A seamless integration of ripe varietal character, subtle lees handling and Burgundian oak selection, have created a wine with line, texture & great poise. Try this with barbecued salmon with herbs and capers or squash risotto with pomegranate butter
