This is one for chardonnay connoisseurs. Felton Road has something of a cult status thanks to their dedication to sustainability and their ability to continually deliver award winning wines. This chardonnay ticks all the boxes. It’s impeccably put together with floral, hazelnut and white peach aromas leading to delicate lemon zest and mineral flavours. It’s textural, full, fresh and clean. Team up with salmon or swordfish dishes.

Taut, youthful and still quite closed chardonnay with wet stone/mineral, a hint of marzipan, white peach/stone fruit and nicely integrated oak. An impressive, powerful wine that can be appreciated now but needs time to reveal its full potential.

Very textural chardonnay - silken with impressive weight and mouth-feel. Wet stone, mineral, a hint of marzipan, white peach, stone fruit and nicely integrated oak. A sophisticated wine with real power. Needs time to reveal it's full potential.
