"A gently expressed chardonnay, the elegantly fragrant bouquet shows stone fruit, rockmelon, nougat and creamy characters with a hint of almond note. It is nicely fruited and rounded on the palate, and displays attractive fruit intensity, beautifully supported by silky texture and integrated acidity" Sam Kim Wine Orbit, July 2017
The 2016 River Delta Chardonnay is a fruit driven, lightly oaked wine with juicy stone fruit and citrus characters with hints of oak spice, toasted nut and vanilla. Aromas of fresh stone fruit, fig and toasted hazelnut. Layers of peach, lemon, hazelnut and vanilla with hints of oak.
The fruit was tasted regularly in the vineyard while it was ripening on the vines, and the grapes were harvested when the flavours were optimum. The grapes were pressed to tank and seasoned oak barrels where the juice was fermented and the wine aged. Selected barrels and tank parcels were blended to create this wine. Perfect for drinking now, this River Delta Chardonnay will evolve beautifully over the next 5 years.
Food Matching: Enjoy with grilled chicken and fresh salad.
