Aussie Vineyards

Source

The delectable grapes used in our AU Chardonnay were picked during mid March through to early April 2004 from South Australia's Limestone Coast. Its cool maritime climate coupled with a splendid warmer than usual autumn purified any risk of disease, giving rise to perfect ripening conditions.

Tasting Notes

With a delightful harmony of spring colours, including soft green hues and straw-pastel yellow, the nose opens with a warm, toasty oak and crisp tropical fruit accents. This wine has been fermented using both new and used French oak barrels as well as stainless steel tanks, to produce a smooth, rich palate of butter, citrus and melon. It has a superb refined finish, carrying the palate to the end. This wine is a perfect accompaniment to seafood and poultry, and even more enjoyable when the meal is complemented with a creamy sauce.
