My last stop on Day 2 of my Orange adventure and I landed at Hoosegg. Cool wines, ripping labels, the attention to detail across the range is immense. This Chardonnay is rich and complex.
Coming off a low cropping vineyard, it sees American oak for 12 months. It opens with toast, hazelnuts and butter. Dense yellow stone fruit floods the palate. Ginger along with cinnamon leads to an array of fine spices that wash through the mouth. Long and persistent, this is a Chardonnay for a cool night. Beautiful.
Drink to eight years.
