Fleur du Cap Chardonnay 2006
Chardonnay
from South Africa, South Africa
winemaker's notes:
This Chardonnay displays beautiful toast aroma on the nose with hints of apricot, melon and citrus fruit. It is dry with a well balanced weight and fullness that demands attention. A zesty palate packed with apricot and citrus fruit flavor is supported by lovely nut, butterscotch and vanilla oak nuances. The flavor gains intensity in the mouth with a fascinating long finish. It will mature well over the next 2 to 4 years.
An ideal accompaniment to sushi, oysters and full-flavored fish such as tuna and salmon. Excellent with pasta or white meat dishes served with rich, creamy sauces.
