The Dawson James Chardonnay captures the minerality of the Meadowbank site, which it combines with varietal fruit characters and extra layers of complexity from partial malolactic fermentation and finely integrated oak.
This Chardonnay has a bright pale yellow colour. The aromas are subtle creamy, nutty and toasty notes derived from barrel fermentation accompanied by zesty lemon pith fruit characters. On the palate, there are intense citrus fruit flavours which are balanced by lively acidity and mineral characters.
