Vriesenhof Chardonnay (Unwooded) 2024

Apart from the delightfully pale, green-tinged appearance this Chardonnay appears so delicious by virtue of its vibrant pear aromas coupled with creamy, lees-aged aromas of freshly baked brioche.
The palate has concentration of flavour and lovely weight. A balanced wine with refreshing acidity and lengthy flavours that persist well into the finish.

It will pair well with a variety of pasta dishes as well as grilled fish and Mediterranean-inspired roast vegetables.
