Product information "Bouchard Finlayson Crocodile's Lair Kaaimansgat Chardonnay 2021"
The Bouchard Finlayson Crocodile's Lair Kaaimansgat Chardonnay spoils with an immensely complex taste profile. Structured with multiple layers of fine taste components, which originate from the use of the best French oak barrels, selected yeasts and the finest grape material, this highly endowed drop pampers with a remarkable kaleidoscope of taste nuances. Notes of lemon drops, white peach, ripe nectarine and pear caress the palate and ensure an unforgettable pleasure experience.

The grapes were cooled overnight after harvesting and the next day they were pressed all over the bunch in order to introduce additional flavour components. The wine fermented in small French barriques (228 l ) on the lees and matured on the lees for 8 months, which gives it an exceptionally creamy texture.
