Saint Clair Unoaked Marlborough Chardonnay (2011)

This refreshing wine is cool-fermented in tanks, using malolactic fermentation to add complexity and soften the acidity. The 2011 vintage (3*) is drinking well now. Full-bodied, it has fresh, citrusy fruit flavours to the fore, a hint of butterscotch, good vibrancy and depth, and a slightly creamy finish.
