Note di degustazione
The 2016 Chardonnay has really come together during its aging. Fresh and detailed, the 2016 has grown into a wine of total finesse. Lemon peel, white flowers, mint and white pepper give the 2016 a super appealing upper register that really explodes. Ample and generous on the palate, with tremendous depth, the 2016 is positively stunning.

Bottled in June 2018, the 2016 Chardonnay opens with decadent nectarine, spiced pears and apple pie scents with hints of lemon tart, orange blossoms and candied ginger plus a waft of marzipan. Full-bodied and rich, with a lovely satiny texture, it has a seamless line of freshness and tons of citrus and stone layers on the finish.
Popcorn, butter, cream, melon, toast, apple: a kaleidoscope of flavour. One of the absolute best of its type, with proud oak, full body and gorgeous fruit. (RH)
A wine of breadth and resonance, the 2016 is a more typical Chardonnay from Kongsgaard than its older sibling. Lemon oil, chamomile, and floral notes are nicely pushed forward. Oily and viscous in the glass, with notable freshness, the 2016 is shaping up to be a jewel of a wine.
