Edgebaston Chardonnay 2015

Name: Edgebaston Chardonnay 2015
Brand: Edgebaston
SKU: 40787

This is the Eighth vintage of Edgebaston Chardonnay. The wine includes grapes from a 30 year old vineyard with 3 different clones of Chardonnay planted. As with previous vintages, the wine shows an elegant minerality with lime-citrus, sourdough and cinnamon flavours. The tight minerality keeps a wonderful acid grip on the palate showing good aging potential. A floral note of wild, white flowers such as frangipani and almond blossom is obvious on the front of the nose and follows through the palate.

Likened by many to the flavours found in cooler Burgundian and Chablis sites, the focus here is to make elegant wines, the ideal accompaniment to foods such as paella, quail and pork.
