| Bright dayglo light yellow colour. Intense, complex, spicy, tropical fruit cocktail nose with some lemon meringue notes. Fairly dry, medium bodied, quite well structured, very spicy, bright, tropical fruit cocktail-tinged, lemon meringue flavours with a lingering, crisp, gently toasty finish. A ready-to-drink crowd-pleaser with 13.5% alcohol. |

| TASTING NOTE: Chardonnay has taken to Argentina in a big way - the grape has flourished in all wine regions. The high-altitude vineyards of Mendoza allow for the development of fresh, bright and crisp examples with excellent acidity. This one has a creamy texture and well-applied oak framing the tropical fruit flavours. A good choice for grilled chicken or pork chops. (VINTAGES panel, March 2014) |
