Julien Schaal Mountain Vineyards Chardonnay 2021
South Africa, Elgin Valley
RRP: £17.35
Description
Tangy, tart, sour plums and green apples combine with a creamy, mealy note. Perhaps picked young and then given some malolactic fermentation. This is an attempt at serious Chablis that provides a satisfying alternative.
