The Berton Vineyard Foundstone Unoaked Chardonnay is a delightful expression of an unoaked Chardonnay.It offers a pale straw color with a brilliant clarity, inviting you to explore its vibrant character.
On the nose, this wine offers a bouquet of fresh citrus fruits, such as lemon and grapefruit, accompanied by subtle floral notes. There is also a hint of tropical fruit, adding a touch of exoticism to the aromatic profile.
The palate is crisp and refreshing, with a medium body that strikes a perfect balance between fruitiness and acidity. Flavors of green apple, pear, and lemon zest dominate, providing a zingy and invigorating experience. The absence of oak allows the pure fruit flavors to shine through, resulting in a clean and vibrant finish.
This Chardonnay is an excellent choice for those who prefer a lighter and more fruit-forward style. It pairs wonderfully with seafood dishes, particularly grilled prawns or pan-seared scallops. Its refreshing acidity also makes it a great companion for creamy pasta dishes or roasted chicken.
