Jackson Wine Estates LA CREMA Chardonnay Sonoma Coast California
Description: Part of Jackson Wine Estates, La Crema winery was founded in 1979 and quickly established itself as a pioneer for intensely flavoured Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from the cool Sonoma Coast. As a specialist in Burgundian varietals, La Crema handcrafts ultra-premium Pinot Noir and Chardonnay as well as a limited amount of varietal-specific wines. Once in the winery this 100% Chardonnay is aged mainly in French Oak, of which 31% are new barrels. As a result Melissa Stackhouse, La Crema Winemaker considered: 'Citrus aromas, lemon peel and green apple are balanced with clove and subtle vanilla in the background. Flavours of green apple, lemon and lime, with an unctuous middle, with spice and caramel that add richness and texture to the lingering finish.' (6 x 75 cl)
Price: £82.46

Col d'Orcia GHIAIE BIANCHE Chardonnay IGT di Toscana
Description: Deep straw yellow, intense and ample bouquet with a scent of orange flowers. The palate is firm, dry and round. The Col d’Orcia Estate covers some 525 hectares near Sant’Angelo in Colle in the southern part of Montalcino, including 80 hectares of vineyards and 100 hectares of olive groves. Col d’Orcia is one of Montalcino’s most dynamic wineries, with massive investment in cellar technology and vineyard research. Thanks to consultant Maurizio Castelli and enologist Mario Olivero, the wines are in the modern vein: Brunello di Montalcino has the classic tarry complexity but with a supple structure of fruit and soft tannins. The cru Poggio al Vento comes from 4 hectares vineyard and is widely considered one of the finest modern expressions of Brunello. Rosso di Montalcino is excellent value with delicious ripe strawberry flavour. Ghiaie Bianche is one of the finest of Tuscany’s new crop of oak-fermented Chardonnays: now with a better balance between ripe fruit and toasty oak (6 x 75 cl)
