Description
- French oak
- Peach & red apple
- Vanilla & nutmeg
- Smooth & elegant
"Distinctive and powerful bouquet, quietly complex, but familiar too with aromas of brazil-nut and peach, toasty barrel and vanilla spices. Full-bodied, creamy and packed with flavours of stone fruits and citrus, pith and spice. Wood tannins and acidity bring texture and length on the palate. Youthful, engaging and very enjoyable" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Mar 2021
Peach and cashew with smoky/toasty elements, mineral, citrus and nectarine. Weight builds from a smooth entry. Flavours of peach, red apples and vanilla merge with nutmeg and slate. Focused fine and elegant, built to last.
Babich have been producing Irongate Chardonnay since 1985 and it has evolved into this richly flavoured, balanced and elegant wine. The vines from this now-famous Gimblett Gravels ‘Irongate’ vineyard are selected at pruning and crop levels are closely monitored to ensure excellent flavour concentration in the grapes.
Food Pairing: Irongate Chardonnay is an intense, richly flavoured wine and is an ideal match for rich seafood and white meat dishes. Try it with char-grilled squid and lemon butter sauce, or barbecued chicken.
