The Telegraph loves Dombeya Chardonnay

The Telegraph’s wine expert divulges the three best Chardonnays to try this spring and Dombeya is on the list!

2012 Dombeya Chardonnay, Stellenbosch, South Africa £13.50, Lea and Sandeman

An old friend brought this beauty round for dinner. As he is generous and I knew nothing about Dombeya I marked it down for a £20 bottle – so this is a real bargain. The nose has a lot going on – lemon, roasted nuts, melted butter – and the wine itself is powerful yet refreshing.
