2021 LOCALE CHARDONNAY

$32.00 inc GST

With hints of tropical apple on the nose, the palate shows a variety of fresh stone fruit and citrus character.

Blended from a range of different clones and soil types from vineyards across Geelong and Regional Victoria, along with fruit from our own estate in the Moorabool Valley, this Chardonnay is beckoning for immediate enjoyment.

Carefully whole-bunch pressed and matured in French oak for about six months prior to bottling, it is a light to medium-bodied white wine that is ripe for all occasions.

With hints of tropical apple on the nose, the palate shows a variety of fresh stone fruit and citrus character.

But the finish is the star – a collection of subtle cream and rich oak that is perfectly delicate. Best paired with fresh prawns, baked barramundi or pâté with crunchy bread.
