White Wine

Fragrant aromas of ripe apple, citrus blossom and roasted almonds combine with a generous lift of toasty oak and a hint of gun smoke. Charred stone fruit with a mealy and creamy richness derived from barrel fermentation provide the framework for this full-bodied wine, structurally tied together with a precise line of lush acidity leading into a long, lingering finish.

This deliciously complex wine will be a great partner to pan-roasted deep sea fish, finished with brown butter and sage, served with celeriac puree and a simple green salad.

An intensely complex and alluring nose displaying a myriad of aromas. Charred grapefruit and struck match dominate the initial impression of this wine and lead into a fragrant spectrum of toasted spice seeds and undertones of white peach. The palate displays contrasting characters of ripe citrus, gunflint and a warm perfume of spice derived from new oak.

Juicy acidity balances the richness from the barrel fermentation and lees aging, providing a satisfyingly dry and long finish. A perfect accompaniment with most seafood dishes, the 2016 Pride and Glory will marry beautifully with crayfish barbequed over coals, served on a charred fennel salad with a lemon infused olive oil dressing.

Charming aromas of candied citrus, ripe peach and honeysuckle are supported by subtle oak notes. The luscious palate demonstrates stone fruit and grapefruit pith complemented by a hint of praline from the extended time in oak and lees stirring. Partial malolactic fermentation has helped to soften the palate while the residual acidity extends the wine to a salivating dry finish.

The King's Bastard Chardonnay pairs well with most white meats, pork and seafood. Try it with crispy pork belly with celeriac puree and seared wild greens.
