Restless River Ava Marie Chardonnay 2020

Restless River Ava Marie Chardonnay 2020 is an exquisite white wine from the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley in South Africa, an area renowned for its cool climate perfect for growing Chardonnay. Made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes, this wine exudes both elegance and precision.

The wine has a brilliant golden hue. The nose offers a complex composition of fresh citrus notes such as lemon and lime, complemented by aromas of green apples, white peach and subtle hints of roasted nuts and vanilla, which come from the aging in oak barrels.

On the palate, Restless River Ava Marie Chardonnay 2020 is both fresh and full-bodied, with lively acidity that beautifully balances the wine's rich texture. The flavor profile includes a blend of citrus and stone fruit, as well as a slightly creamy character with a minerality that adds depth. The finish is long and elegant, with a fine harmony between fruit, acidity and subtle notes of oak.

This Chardonnay is a versatile wine that pairs well with seafood, grilled fish, poultry or creamy pasta dishes. It is ready to be enjoyed now, but also has the potential to develop further with a few years of aging.
