Wine profile

Crouch Valley Chardonnay

Ripe orchard fruit and apple blossom meet warm bread, rich-tea biscuit and a cool stony note. Ten months in mostly seasoned French oak build a creamy middle, while citrus acidity and a saline finish keep this concentrated Essex Chardonnay taut.

Taste & pair

In the glass

Ripe citrus, apple blossom and orchard fruit broaden into brioche, fennel seed and toasted hazelnut. Barrel fermentation and lees ageing bring texture, while orange zest and a long mineral line hold this debut Chardonnay in elegant balance.
