Description
The 2018 Holden Manz Chardonnay Reserve is a bright, deep lemon in color, with an expressive nose of vanilla, lemon zest, pistachios, and lime blossom. On the palate, extended lees contact imparts a creamy complexity, with a full mouthfeel and crisp acidity that highlights ripe grapefruit and lime. Elegant flavors of Cape gooseberry, white peach, and elderflower are beautifully interwoven with complex acidity, leading to a long, smooth finish.
Ideal with seafood dishes such as lobster with lemon butter, slow-poached oysters, roasted monkfish or pan-fried sea scallops. Also pairs well with white fish and light pork dishes.
