2008 Chardonnay/Pinot Gris Blend

Vintage - The 2008 vintage was the best and earliest vintage yet. And for all the right reasons, all fruit was physiologically ripe. Chardonnay = 55% and Pinot Gris = 45%

Appearance -
Bright medium gold colour with a tinge of green in the rim.

Aroma -
Distinctive, ripe William Bon Chretien pear aromatics with melon notes and hints of white peaches and oak spice. 

Palate -
Flavoursome, clean, fresh fruit flavours with just a hint of fruit sweetness. Balanced oak and acidity make for a fresh, vibrant wine.

Cellaring -
Enjoy this while young, but keep some for 3 - 5 years to see how the wine complexes with time.

Serving -
Best presented at 10 - 15 C for overall enjoyment

Food Accompaniments -
All types of game bird dishes, meatier flavoured fish, salads and chicken dishes.  Other white meats will suit the wine as well.

Notice to our Customers:  The price increased to $38 per bottle as of 1 June 2010.  Limited quantities are still available.
