Chateau Montelena Chardonnay

A wonderfully bright through-line of fresh citrus peel and early-season apple, driven by crunchy acidity and taut, tart flavours. There’s real generosity beneath that precision, exploding across the palate with effusive white floral notes and crushed almond nuances. Signature briny salinity comes through clearly, some lemon oil, followed by a flicker of underripe pineapple on the finish. Already complex and deeply enticing, yet clearly built for the long haul.
