Product Notes

Simpsons Wine Estate Roman Road Chardonnay is a Somerset-born, elegant wine with a palatable complexity. This exquisite drink exhibits delicate tones of ripe pear, toasted brioche, and a subtle marzipan undertone, rounded off with a crisp, citrus finish. The wine is cultivated on chalk soils akin to those found in the world-renowned region of Burgundy. Fermented and aged in French oak barrels, this Chardonnay offers superb texture and a remarkable depth of flavour, creating a rich, refined experience. It indeed epitomises the extraordinary quality of English viticulture. Enjoy this wine paired with seafood or white meat dishes.

Tasting Notes

Complex layers of tropical and citrus fruit, subtle butterscotch and flint aromas leads to a palate with ripe, fruit intensity balanced by elegant minerality, fresh citrus notes and touches of cedar.
