QWINE REVIEWS - WINE OF THE WEEK We’re absolutely thrilled to share our 2023 Montalto Chardonnay is Qwine’s Wine of The Week! "What a delight! Sip slow and embrace. Superb drinking.” Steve Leszczynski, Qwine. Read the full review here: https://lnkd.in/gEPkCApm "An expressive nose of white fleshed stone fruit and citrus compliment characters of almond croissant, praline and nougat. On the palate the wine is generous with flavours of ruby grapefruit, ripe lemon and just a hint of candied citrus peel. Talc and pumice stone combine with minerals and crème brûlée to create a layered wine that is rich in texture yet lively and fresh.” Simon Black, Montalto Chief Winemaker. For more information, or to purchase online: https://lnkd.in/gxa6gUZy "2023 was an exceptionally rare season, when each of the natural elements aligned to complement the task of making great red wine. While the yields were again frustratingly small, the resulting Pinot Noir and Shiraz have a depth, concentration, purity and finesse that is only present in the great vintages.” Read more about our recent new releases: https://lnkd.in/gMTbJ-AS 🍇 Looking for a discount?
