A full style, ripe Chardonnay from Domaine de Cassagnau showing rich stone fruits and citrus.

Vibrant ruby hues gleam out of the glass. The first notes on the nose are of crushed blueberries which then develop on to reveal an intriguing bitter-sweet character of crème de cassis with a touch of underlying parma violets. Fine red-fruits fill the mouth; raspberries and a touch of dark chocolate truffle.

Cream and honey on the nose. Great balance here: there is an underlying acidity that ensures longevity and elegance whilst intense, opulent stone fruit flavours fill the mouth without being clumsy or heavy.
