d’Arenberg The Witches Berry Organic Chardonnay 750ml

d’Arenberg The Witches Berry Chardonnay offers an appealing nose that is fruit driven and lifted. Peach, pineapple and Granny Smith all sing out, adequately supported by a subtle nutty aroma which adds a whisper of savouriness. The palate is generous, round and unctuous through the first half then takes on a more refined, almost saline, line and length. One can almost sense the sunshine in the glass. Well considered oak sits in the background, adding more texturally than anything else, perhaps a fine hint of cedar but certainly nothing sweet. Ready to go the moment you open the bottle, no need to wait. Best served a few degrees above fridge temperature to take advantage of those wonderful fruits and the generous texture.
