Nautilus Estate Chardonnay 2023 paola-medina Sloping towards the Loire theThe 2023 Nautilus Chardonnay is straw coloured with a lifted nose of ripe nectarines, brioche, beeswax and toasted almonds with a hint of flinty complexity. The palate displays stone fruits, honeysuckle, and a nutty complexity from the natural ferments. The palate has good depth and concentration with a refreshingly long finish. This wine has a tight mineral structure and will develop a creamy texture as it matures.
