The 1850 Chardonnay 2023 by Eric Gelly from the Côtes de Thongue IGP shines with a bright, pale yellow colour with golden accents. The nose unfolds aromas of fresh citrus, juicy green apple and hints of tropical fruit such as pineapple and mango. These are complemented by subtle notes of vanilla and a light minerality, giving the wine a refined character. On tasting you experience a beautiful balance between freshness and creaminess. The lively acidity gives the wine a fresh start, while the creamy texture provides a silky mouthfeel. Flavours of lime, ripe peach and a touch of almond come together harmoniously. The finish is refreshing and elegant, with a lasting impression of citrus and a light touch of buttery roundness.
Pair with grilled salmon, creamy chicken dishes, or a salad with goat's cheese and peach.
