The very finest parcels of fruit have been used in this generous Adelaide Hills Chardonnay. With concentrated citrus, melon and white stone fruit flavours and a toasty honey oak profile, this white is everything you'd expect from a respected winemaker such as Julie Montgomery and the iconic Tolley label.

The Adelaide Hills is renowned for its cool, crisp, crunchy Chardonnays with intense flavour and complexity. This one is a glittering example of the style. Green apple, citrus and a light touch of creamy oak combine on a long crisp, elegant palate. It's a brilliant match to Singapore chilli crab.

Taylors Jaraman Chardonnay has lifted, complex aromas of subtle white peach and nectarine along with secondary aromas of cream and cashew nuts from lees stirring and oak maturation.

A scattering of nutmeg and preserved pear furthers the texture and flavour on the palate.
