2020 Bodegas Manzanos '1864 Castillo de Olite' Chardonnay Navarra Spain

1864 Castillo de Olite Blanco Barrica is a gloriously silky and rounded Chardonnay. Five months in a mix of French and American oak has layered delicate spices, buttery pastry, creamy vanilla and sweet coconut into the peach, pear and citrus fruit flavours. Pure pleasure from the first to the last drop.

Manzanos follows in the footsteps of four generations of his family, making wines on the border between Rioja and Navarra. Combining the rich tradition and stunning landscape found in the sub-region of Rioja Oriental with the innovation and flexibility that a young team can enjoy in Navarra, Bodegas Manzanos creates sensational wines that offer baffling value for money.
