A ripping Chardonnay from the sandy soils of the Belford vineyard planted in 1991.
Aromas of yellow fleshed stonefruit and flashes of green apple get you in the mood. Rich and generous, it's a wine which rolls around the mouth without obstruction. Barbecued peaches, some buttercream and whispers of vanilla add to this wine's soul. Squeezes of lemon add another layer of interest before deft spices to close capping off a moreish and pleasurable drop. Great stuff, no question.
Drink now to eight years.
