WINE DESCRIPTION

Dog Point Chardonnay is a premium wine produced by the renowned Dog Point Vineyard in Marlborough, New Zealand. The vineyard is known for its sustainable farming practices and the use of organic materials. The Chardonnay grapes are sourced from the estate's oldest vines, which are carefully tended to produce high-quality fruit. The winemaking process involves a combination of traditional and modern techniques, resulting in a wine that is both elegant and complex. The wine is characterized by its rich and creamy texture, with notes of citrus, stone fruit, and subtle oak. It is a perfect match for seafood, poultry, and creamy pasta dishes.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Dog Point Chardonnay is an immensely smooth, creamy, and balanced wine with a delightful nose of ripe peach, citrus, and honeysuckle.On the palate, it offers a luscious texture of mango, honeydew melon, and dried apricot, with a hint of toasty oak. The finish is long and pleasing, with a lingering hint of vanilla and spice. An excellent choice for pairing with lightly spiced seafood dishes or creamy pastas.
