Dunnolly Chardonnay Reserve 2016
About the wine
This decadent Reserve is full of top-shelf flavor. YUM.
- This is a fun Reserve Chardonnay that you'll be drinking everyday. It's elegant, balanced... and bursting with liveliness!
- Nicky's making our mouths water at the mere thought of a glass. Your winemaker says: "I describe this wine as marmalade on buttery brioche toast with ripe apricots, passionfruit and a fine citrus line - it's enchanting and engaging."
- Treat this decadent white to a plate of fresh sea scallops, browned in butter. Every bite and sip will melt in your mouth.
Best before
This wine has been made for drinking now and for cellaring for the next 3 to 5 years.
Serving advice
Serve chilled.
Food match
Living in New Zealand there is always the tendency to pair our Chardonnay with fresh local seafood. It seems naturally drawn to shell fish like scallops and clams. I think it's due to the natural crunchy acidity and subtle citrus notes found in our Chardonnay.
Contains sulphites
