Chardonnay is the chameleon of the grape world, capable of producing diverse age-worthy dry wine styles ranging from crisp and light through to powerful and textured. Part of Chardonnay's charm is its versatility, meaning it's a popular choice for wine lovers everywhere.
From full-bodied, often oaky, with buttery textures in California to crisp, rich and tropical flavours found in Australia, a glass of Chardonnay is always sure to delight.
Brilliant pale straw colour with distinct highlights of green around the edges and a watery hue. Pronounced grapefruit, citrus and nectarine aromas intermix with biscuity oak and infusions of gun flint. Fleshy nectarine and pear fruits overlay a back drop of grapefruit, faint dried honey, biscuity oak and gun flint. Fresh acidity with an elegant, gently cream tinged medium to long finish. Drink over the next 4-5 years.
Fragrant scents of grapefruit, white peach, lemon and a whiff of spice underpinned by gentle, faintly toasty vanilla oak precede a gentle, smooth and mouthfilling palate whose vibrant citrus and stonefruit flavours are gently supported by nutty oak and finished by a soft acidity. A ripe, finely balanced and very elegant chardonnay whose core of fruit is as delicious as it is long and complete. Very impressive.
Vibrant straw with a youthful green hue. It is restrained with lemony citrus zest, green bean, honeysuckle and balanced oak aromas. The palate is textural, tight and minerally, with lovely acidity giving line and length. Cellar confidently for over ten years.
