Tasting note:

Vintages Wine Panel: This crowd-pleasing Australian Chard is robust but not overblown. It’s matured in 100% new oak, giving it a hefty portion of toasty, buttery character while it retains ample finesse. Look for green apple and tropical fruit flavors to complement the oaky notes. This wonder from down under will stand up to a feast. My note: A terrific Chardonnay for the money! Layers of buttery goodness, with ripe pears and peaches. Absolutely yum. Full-bodied with a warm finish. Food matches: flame-grilled herbed chicken, sea scallops fried in butter and garlic.
