Bay of Fires Tasmania Chardonnay 2017 (Australia)

Description

Medium straw in colour with a pale green hue, this wine displays intense aromas of spice, fresh white peach and preserved lemon. Toasty oak with a hint of lemon curd richness also features in the wine when young. Flavours of stonefruit and grapefruit interplay with creamy toast characters on the palate, adding complexity. The wine is integrated and seamless, with a crisp acid finish, which adds a pleasant juiciness to the wine.

Bay of Fires Wines was founded in the 1990s by a team of dedicated winemaking and viticultural professionals, who believed Tasmania would one day become the pre-eminent Australian region to produce cool-climate Tasmanian wines. The entire Bay of Fires team is focused on one singular passion – to share Tasmania's most outstanding wines with you. Their vision continues to rely on the search for the individual personalities found in every variety and vineyard. The team crafts alluring wines that are distinctively Tasmanian, without compromising on consistency or quality. The wines are produced from hand-picked Tasmanian fruit, specially selected for quality and character. Each fruit parcel is kept separate so it can be constantly assessed in order to capture its unique essence at precisely the right moment. And then, in the finest oak available, the fruit is given the freedom to let nature work its magic. The evidence of the alchemy of this winemaking practice can be experienced in each and every Bay of Fires Wine.
