The Accomplice Chardonnay 2022

Light straw colour with lifted aromas of ripe peach and nectarine complemented with decent lick of vanillan oak. The palate is soft and creamy and exhibits ripe stone fruits with integrated oak and a gentle, very long finish.

A large percentage of juice was handled oxidatively. This develops a richer and riper stone fruit spectrum in the resultant wine. Fermentation on oak allows for quicker and greater integration between the fruit and oak for a harmonious balance. Some parcels are left au naturel to go through malolactic fermentation, further softening the acid profile. The wines are left on light primary and secondary lees to add creaminess and weight.

These more full bodied styles match well with: Creamy Pasta - white wine and cream sauces; mushroom risotto. Chicken - grilled chicken; chicken caesar salad. Hard Cheeses - parmesan; roumano; vintage gouda.
