Explosively fruity aromas and flavors of blackberry

A taste of this crisp

and an earthy savoriness

so that the wine is centred and the taste lingers

Au Bon Climat Santa Barbara Chardonnay - 750ml bonded Explosively fruity aromas and flavorsThe Santa Barbara County Chardonnay is a beautiful example of the Au Bon Climat style. The flinty, stony aromas stand out, while in the background is an intriguing spice note of clove and nutmeg from surlies barrel aging in somewhat neutral, Francois Freres barrels for 10 months. Flavors and aromas of citrus and stone fruit, are finished with a beautiful lemon lime zest note. This wine is intense, but light on its feet and is built to compliment food,
