Jilyara Heath Road Chardonnay 2018

The 2018 has an intense nose of ripe citrus, white peaches, pineapple and toasted nuts. The Palate is textural with aromas of white and yellow peaches, raisins and citrus peels. Fresh but already rich and enveloped with warm charred oak on the finish. Three to five years cellaring should allow this wine to integrate and develop another level of complexity.

Rosemount has been apart of the Australian wine scene for over 145 years and their dedication to quality can been seen in their Diamond Label range including this delicious Chardonnay. The toasty nutty flavours of the oak perfectly complement the rich melon peach varietal characters of the grape in this full-flavoured Chardonnay.

The grapes for this Chardonnay are from select rows of the Eden Valley vineyard.Delicate, classic aromas of white peach, opulent pear and toasty brioche all leading on to a sumptuous creamy palate of layer upon layer of lemon, citrus fruit and vanilla notes all balanced with a clean, mineral intensity that you always expect from this vineyard. The seamless balance of understated oak never overstates, and whilst the current youthful exuberance of the fruit gives it an appealing freshness this wine will develop further complexity over the next 5+ years.

Nectarine and white peach, textured mid palate, acid and oak to close.

Vasse Felix is on the cutting edge of modern style Chardonnay with their focus on lean, zippy and aromatic characters. A proven medal and trophy winning wine, the Vasse Felix Filius Chardonnay has delicious stone fruit and purity of acid and minerality. Has wonderful line and length that will accompany light seafood dishes wonderfully.

This excellent expression of Chardonnay, partly due to only limited time in oak, is light, fresh and zesty but with inherent complexity. Pale straw in colour, this wine exhibits lifted nectarine and white blossom characters with underlying minerality and depth. The palate is clean and lively with tremendous depth of ripe stone-fruit flavour nuanced by cashew notes. A refreshing backbone of natural grape acidity provides further structure and length.
