2021 may have been a much leaner vintage than 2020, but Lyme Bay has pulled another stunner out of the bag with its latest chardonnay. As usual this Devon-based winery has sourced the fruit from Essex, the warmest driest part of the country. This is given some oak ageing which gives it a roundness and compliments the zingy citrus fruit. This would be remarkably good with shellfish.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Limey nose, very very fresh. On the palate there notes of lemon meringue pie with a creamy and nutty texture. Long finish.
