Warwick Estate White Lady Chardonnay 750 ml

Tasting Notes

Wine Profile:
Warwick Estate’s The White Lady Chardonnay is a distinguished expression of South African terroir, showcasing elegance, complexity, and finesse. Sourced from select vineyard sites in Stellenbosch, this barrel-fermented Chardonnay offers a balance of richness and vibrant acidity.

Appearance:
Brilliant pale gold with a hint of green, reflecting its youthful freshness and depth.

Nose:
Aromas of ripe stone fruit, such as peach and nectarine, intertwine with citrus zest and hints of pineapple. Subtle oak integration adds layers of toasted brioche, vanilla, and a delicate nuttiness. A whisper of flinty minerality enhances its complexity.

Palate:
Silky and refined, The White Lady presents a harmonious balance between opulence and freshness. Notes of lemon curd, ripe pear, and apricot meld with well-judged oak influence, bringing nuances of butterscotch and almond. The wine’s creamy texture is complemented by a crisp line of acidity, leading to a lingering, elegant finish with a touch of salinity.

Food Pairing:
A versatile companion to seafood dishes such as grilled lobster, seared scallops, or creamy garlic prawns. It also pairs beautifully with roast chicken, truffle-infused risottos, or soft cheeses like Brie and Camembert.

Cellaring Potential:
Enjoy now for its vibrant fruit and finesse, or cellar for 5–8 years to develop deeper complexity and nutty undertones.
