This is a serious wine that shows the potential of Chardonnay in England. Made in an unoaked style to show the purity of the fruit, the nose is tight and focussed but has apple, pear and citrus aromas along with a classic flintiness. The palate is textural, with good weight and concentration, clean juicy fruit, steely acidity and a long mineral finish. 12.5% abv
