Chardonnay Casablanca Valley Montes Alpha - Case of 6

From the Montes flagship Alpha range, this elegant Chardonnay has aromas of vanilla, melon and apricots, with balanced acidity and a long finish. 35% is fermented in French oak and 25% goes through malolactic fermentation giving a creamy edge. This wine is bright golden, yellow in colour. The intense, complex nose offers tropical fruit aromas such as pineapple, banana and ripe mango, while pleasing notes of peaches and pears round out the fruity profile. The coastal climate is very much present in the subtle notes of grapefruit and white asparagus. The French oak also complements the aromatic profile with elegant and well-integrated toasted notes that recall hazelnut and vanilla. Perfectly balanced acidity results in a very fresh wine that also has generous volume.
