Product Notes

Lismore Chardonnay is an elegant, full-bodied wine; an exquisite balance of Old World richness and New World freshness hailing from South Africa. Displaying a vibrant gold hue, it exudes alluring aromas of bright citrus, vanilla, and toasty oak. On the palate, it presents a depth of flavours - ripe stone fruits, zesty lemon, and buttery nuances, underpinned by a minerality reflective of the terroir. Its refined acidity and elongated finish beautifully harmonise the complexity of this wine. The Lismore Chardonnay is a captivating symphony of taste, perfect for wine lovers seeking sophistication in their glass.

Tasting Notes

A complex, expressive bouquet with touches of smoke and walnut infusing the citrus fruit and a hint of toffee just underneath. The palate is lively and ripe on the entry with apricot, mandarin, orange zest and white peach. It is long in the mouth with a fine, walnut inspired finish.
