SKU: VASFHECHA19
The Vasse Felix Heytesbury Chardonnay 2019 features fine perfumes of floral talc, pink grapefruit, lime blossom and lemongrass tea mingle with exciting savoury limestone and oyster shell complexities reminiscent of the coast. Intriguing notes of classic flint, struck match, candle wax and fresh white leather round out this captivating aroma. A strong central line of acidity holds tension in this juicy body of fruit, supported by incredible phenolic powder. Nervy and taut, the pithy feel of flinty stone, lime and pink grapefruit continue to give breath to the long Heytesbury finish.

Food Pairing
Amazing with oily fish, firm fish like Nannygai and rich fish like Dhufish particularly in its youth. Pork, chicken, turkey, rabbit, crayfish, crab, scallops, oysters and scallops, cheese. With cellaring development it can work well with vanilla, milk and cream based-desserts if with balanced sweetness.
”Everyone has their favourites. The Heytesbury chardonnay style is typically the wine that my heart reaches for. I love it. The 2019 iteration is minerally; laden with graphite and crushed rocks, brine, white currant, white peach and curry leaf. Heavily worked and wild, with an attractive rawness to it. Where 2018 was about fruit power, 2019 is about complex winemaking input. This still has my heart, but for different reasons to its predecessor.”
