Embrazen Chardonnay (75cl, 13.5%)

Embrazen Chardonnay is a medium-bodied California Chardonnay from Treasury Wine Estates, bottled at 13.5% ABV. The wine sees oak influence, contributing subtle vanilla and pear characteristics alongside its fruit-forward core. Each bottle carries an augmented reality label honouring Celia Cruz, accessible through the Living Wine Labels app. The nose opens with bright lemon and lemon candy, a mineral backbone and a whisper of vanilla. On the palate, ripe peach and honeydew melon meet oak-derived pear and honey, kept lively by citrusy acidity. The finish is moderate, with lingering minerality and a faint echo of ripe stone fruit.
