Description
A refined style of Chardonnay. Delicate notes of white peach, melon and citrus are at the forefront, supported by savoury, toasty, nutty notes which are promoted by a mindful selection of French oak. Wholly complete yet with great aging potential, the KW Chardonnay brings together poise and elegance and is defined by a long, flinty finish.
