Louise Wilson rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Loaded with red and green apple flavors wrapped in luxurious toasty oak. This full bodied wine generously over delivers for the price. Killer with Kentucky Fried Chicken. Tasted Mar 2104.

Heather Wall rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Specially selected grapes from premium parcels of land across Margaret River make this a delightful medium-bodied chardonnay. Golden apple, peach blossoms, pear, citrus stone fruit and subtle oak. Fresh acidity is deliberately retained by the winemaker. Beautiful summer wine. Complimented my Creamy Mushroom Ravioli beautifully. Now to 2018.
Good value at $17.95

A medium-bodied Chard with fresh pure tree fruit flavours. Clean fruit flavours on palate with minimal subtle oak.

Robert Oatley Signature Series Chardonnay 2012 is a soft and smooth medium bodied wine. Beautiful fresh fruit flavours and aromas of apple and peach. Lovely wine that will not disappoint! Tasted January 16, 2014 (90/100)

Matt Steeves rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

A terrific expression of medium weight Chardonnay from the well known Margaret River region. Limited oak influence (20% new French oak), and no malolactic fermentation produced a refreshing and delicate wine that would be terrific complement to many lighter dishes.

Natalie's Review

Robert Oatley Vineyards Signature Series Chardonnay 2012, Margaret River, New South Wales, Western Australia, Australia: A full-bodied white wine that's rich and buttery with some smoke on the nose from generous oak aging. Supple, layered and tasty. Great price. Try with seafood pasta in a cream sauce or roast chicken or turkey. Drink: 2013-2016. 350900 13% XD 750 mL $17.95 Score: 90/100.
