McGuigan Black Label Chardonnay, , 75 cl (Case of 6)

Product Information

Chardonnay is the world's favourite grape variety with its long popularity stemming from its versatility. As a variety, it takes well to oak or can produce unwooded fruit forward styles which, depending on the wine can be drunk while young or develop further with age. Its versatility also extends to food matching which makes it a great accompaniment to a wide variety of meals and indeed cuisines. Harvested at night, this chardonnay was crushed and pressed and the resultant juice was clarified. Fermentation was conducted on French and American oak planks at cool temperatures to retain maximum fruit characters. This light use of oak has added creaminess and vanillin, giving the wine more depth, weight and complexity.
