Meadowbank Chardonnay
Stefano Lubiana Sparkling Non-Vintage
We're really pleased by what we now find in the glass a fine, elegant, luxurious sparkling wine that is rich and complex in aroma and flavour, yet still retains the fundamental verve and freshness of the authentic non-vintage style. Its cool Tasmanian origins are as clear as a bell. The palate carries our region's Chardonnay-driven crisp, citrusy acidity which helps define the wine's classic structure and food-friendly character.
Frogmore Creek Sparkling
A standout new sparkling from Frogmore with aromas of toasty brioche and delicate citrus. Full and crisp flavours of apples and strawberries linger on the refined acid structure. Matched perfectly to a dozen natural oysters and creamy chicken dishes. Limited stock. 95 Points | Tyson Stelzer's 2017 Australian Sparkling Wine of the Year Under $50.
Jansz Single Vineyard Vintage Chardonnay
With winter rains, healthy and wholesome grapevines protruded out of the soil at the Jansz vineyard. Grapes were picked from a single block in the vineyard, the whole bunch pressed, and fermented and aged in French oak barriques with more than five years on lees. This extensive winemaking procedure resulted in the creation of an elegant Chardonnay wine displaying pale gold colours with an exceptional bead. The lifted bouquet gives out scents of truffles, oyster shells and preserved lemons coupled with underlying nuances of honey nougat and Amaretti biscuits. The complex and intense palate is an amalgam of brioche, roast almond nougat and crystallised lemon nuances that balance the chalky minerality and creamy texture of the wine to provide a refreshing and lengthy climax. The wine possesses an alcohol content of 12% and is a great pairing with whole baked snapper with ginger and citrus.
