Description

Domaine Wardy Perle du Chateau 2019

Domaine Wardy Perle du Château is a rich, luscious and full-bodied white wine defined by a beautiful minerality. Flavours of guava, green apple, lemon and honey fill the palate before hints of bay leaf, sage and lavender emerge. Closes in a long and lingering finish.

75% Chardonnay, 14% Obeidi and 11% Muscat de Petit Grain. The fruit for this wine comes from vineyards in Zahle, Dhour Zahle and Niha. These vineyards have limestone and gravel soils.

Handpicking of the grapes. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The wine matures in French oak barrels for 10 months.

Lush & Tropical Whites

Succulent stonefruit with a citrus backbone characterises these wines. Typically, they have notes of tropical fruit, and come from warmer climates. A touch of oak during the winemaking process also helps to give some softness to the wine.

Expect notes of peach, apricot, pineapples, melon & a buttery texture
