"A great example of Adelaide Hills Chardonnay with fresh, bright fruits and a suitable dose of high quality oak. Pale in colour, there is good upfront impact of tangy citrus and melon fruits with subtle florals and a strong line of spicy oak. Classic Chardonnay generosity in the mouth with a creamy texture well matched to zesty acidity before a sustained and lengthy finish."
