The 2023 Chardonnay was crafted from organic, hand harvested fruit from the Oak Estate vineyard located just over the fence from Herringbone.
Pineapple and citrus aromas with hints of toasty oak, the wine is creamy on the palate with a beautiful richness of fruit flavours and oak influence.
It was whole bunch pressed and fermented in oak to create a rich and supple chardonnay. Aged in French oak for 10 months prior to bottling the finished wine exhibits a fine balance between fruit flavours and subtle oak toastiness which is velvety and smooth on the palate.
We've been fans of their Syrah and Chardonnay for some time and this is another go-to product we'll add to the list.
Light in colour, but plenty of depth and flavour and pleasingly dry.
Highly recommended.
I haven’t tried every bottle in this selection yet, however, so far they are all very tasty. I’m a Chardonnay lover, always on the look out for a dryish not sweet wine and these are just right for me. An excellent mixed case and we’ll priced.
This was a very nice surprise in Wine Direct’s very welcome Plenty Under $20 category. Beautifully fruity, rich and smooth. Often the Plenty Under $20 range is a little light for the depth I like but I will definitely be reordering this one.
A great summer wine… elegant and a fine balance of lighter fruit and delicate acidity with a nice dry finish. Very drinkable with or without food. A nice change from our usual unoaked French Chardonnay
