Toasty, lees driven style of Chardonnay. Biscuity, textured and creamy to a point, but not overdone. The winemaking is backed up by some superb natural acidity to balance the palate which sets the scene for a cashew nut, savoury, long finish. Elegant top quality Chardonnay and shows what Ballarat has to offer.

Ratings Key:
Outstanding (Score range 95-100)
Often an internationally recognised, leading brand or winery – but not always! Produces a classic wine that is a faultless representation of the style/variety. Complexity on the nose and a seamless palate are an example of the hallmarks of an outstanding wine.
Highly Recommended (Score range 92-94)
A quality focused wine that has plenty of style. Length of palate and intensity are often key characteristics of highly recommended wines. These producers could be the ones to watch in the future.
Recommended (Score range 89-91)
An above average well-made, reflection of the style/variety, which often represents good value for money.
