Kasteelberg Chardonnay 2014

Rich and golden with strong tropical aromas, beautifully enhanced by subtle tones of well-integrated oak. Although upfront and bold, the secret of this wine is in its exceptional balance, an outstanding version of the classic Chardonnay.

Serve slightly chilled with rich food like grilled line fish. For an exceptional taste sensation, combine this Chardonnay with spicy Thai food.
