THE TASTE & FLAVOURS Alpha 2010 charms the eye with its sparkling satin robe and fine, lively bubbles forming a delicate ring. The visual sensation announces a fresh and subtle wine. The Chardonnay takes centre stage initially, with a delicately floral bouquet rolling out acacia, honeysuckle and poppy scents mingling with hints of fresh orchard fruit, biscuit and toast. On aeration, delicious aromas of cherry, red apple and honey are released. The sensation on the palate is one of long-lasting finesse leading through to salty chalk notes in the finish.
