New to Majestic's line-up, this is a classy Otago Chardonnay, fermented and aged for 11 months in French oak barriques. It's rounded and yeasty in character, with a wild-ferment richness to it, and salted butter notes alongside the citrus and apple fruit. Accomplished winemaking by winemaker John Forrest, and very moreish. Mix-six price: £19.99
