NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The KWV Classic Collection Chardonnay is a delightful white wine that showcases the classic characteristics of the Chardonnay grape variety.It displays a pale straw color with golden hues, enticing the senses with its vibrant appearance.
On the nose, this Chardonnay offers a bouquet of tropical fruits such as pineapple, ripe peach, and hints of citrus. These fruity aromas are complemented by subtle notes of vanilla and oak, adding complexity and depth to the wine.
The palate is rich and creamy, with a medium to full body that coats the mouth with luscious flavors. The tropical fruit flavors continue to shine, accompanied by a touch of butterscotch and toasted almonds. The well-integrated oak provides a gentle backbone, contributing to a smooth and elegant finish.
