Excellent value for money Chardonnay. A blend of Pemberton, Porongurup and Margaret River fruit from WA, fermented in old French oak and matured for 10 months. It displays a nose of citrus and white stone fruit with a bit of lees and oak. Dry, slightly on the light side with plenty of acidity, but enough to sustain the palate length.

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.
