Overview:
Palliser Estate Chardonnay 2024 is a refined expression of Martinborough winemaking, pale lemon in colour with clarity and brightness. This wine balances richness and elegance, delivering layers of stonefruit, nutty oak, and savoury complexity. An energetic acid line drives the palate to a long, graceful finish, making it a sophisticated companion to fine cuisine.
Tasting Notes:
Aromas of vanilla, pecan pie, hazelnut, nectarine and grapefruit introduce a creamy, mouthfilling palate. Abundant stonefruit and toasty oak spice are lifted by savoury hints of rock salt. Textural and concentrated, with freshness and vitality shaping a long, elegant close.
