Serve well-chilled as an aperitif at any festival or special occasion, and pair it with a variety of salads, fresh fruit or light seafood dishes.

in the cellar : Fermented in stainless steel tank between 13° - 15° C. The Chardonnay component was given more time on primary fermentation lees which adds to the slightly roundish mouth feel, complemented by the fresh fruit characters and natural acidity from the Chenin Blanc and Sauvignon Blanc components. Unwooded.
