Veritas 2005 - Bronze
SAA inflight 2006 - First Class
Starbright with a pale straw colour. The freshness of citrus and lime form the first impression on the nose. This is followed by a sweeter white peach and yellow apple fruit ripeness and the tell tale lanolin aroma of Chardonnay. The spicy vanilla oak plays a subtle supporting role and allows the primary fruit to steal the show. Soft ripe fruit on the palate is backed by enough structure to hold lots of promise for further evolution in the bottle. A finely crafted Chardonnay with classic intensity of flavour and finesse.
Ideal with most seafood e.g. Fish carpaccio, Fish curry, Creamy crayfish pasta, shellfish salad. Creamy cheese like ripe Winelands Camembert, Pont le Eveque or Reblochon.
