Merrebee Estate
2000 Chardonnay
Winemaker’s comments
The colour is mid straw. Brilliant clarity. The aromas are
intense ripe tropical fruit characters with pineapple, peach and fig
flavours dominate. Subtle nutty, toasty French oak characters are
also evident. The palate continues the rich ripe tropical fruit
flavours with the nutty toasty oak. A beautifully balanced palate
combines the fruit and oak characters with a fresh, clean finish
with excellent persistence.
Food accompaniments
Chardonnay with a touch of oak is suited to most stronger
flavoured dishes as well as salads and pastas.
