Since 1858, Stonyfell has been synonymous with creating acclaimed Australian wines. Our celebrated winemakers continue the Stonyfell tradition and legacy with the 2020 Unwooded Chardonnay. Tropical fresh fruit aromas envelope the nose and lead to zesty, lively flavours on the palate. This unwooded Chardonnay shows beautiful length with fine acidity and a subtle creaminess.

Take all the joy of a summer fruit salad, with the zip and zing of tropical fruit and a dash of sunshine, distil it into a wine and you will have the miracle that is Verdelho. A native of Portugal, this sumptuous grape has really made a home for itself here in Australia. It’s a wine you’ll be seeing a lot more of as it makes it way onto the wine lists of the country’s best restaurants. Love a fruit-forward Chardy without any of the oak? Partial to a tropical Sav Blanc that’s a little less grassy? This is your perfect middle-ground and will definitely hit the sweet spot.

Verdelho comes from Portugal originally, yet it was amongst the first varieties planted in Langhorne Creek and still thrives today. Conditions for grape growing in Langhorne Creek are ideal thanks to the natural fertility of the floodplain soils, the ability of those soils to retain moisture from natural winter floods, and the moderation of the local climate by cooling evening breezes off nearby Lake Alexandria and the Southern Ocean in summer. Look for fragrant honeydew melon, pineapple, passionfruit, lemon zest and citrus with balanced acidity and an almost steely, persistent finish.

With Fiano being a relatively new variety to Australia (originates from the Campagna region of Italy) who better than the Oliver family now celebrating over 170 years of grape growing, to create this Taranga farm favourite. This delicious drop is all sweet ripe lime and pear flavours with loads of texture perfect for lovers of fresh crisp white wines. As Gary Walsh said dangerously easy to drink.

Bremerton Bâtonnage Chardonnay features a pale straw colour with dark green hues. This enticing Chardonnay exudes intense aromas of stone fruit, lemon curd and spice from its scintillating nose, while the expressive palate integrates with soft oak notes and a fine acid balance, to provide a creamy mouthfeel and great length. These flavours and aromas culminate in a textural and persistent finish. This delicious wine can be enjoyed upon release, or be cellared for some years to develop an intense fruit profile and complexity. Drink this wine slightly chilled with white meat such as veal, pork and poultry. It also tastes excellent with oily fish such as salmon and tuna.

Tasting Notes Aroma Bright and lifted aromas of pear skin, delicate florals and hints of almond . Palate Zesty and refreshing with delicate flavours of pear and lychee, the palate has a lovey texture with great drive and a moreish finish.

The Fiano comes from two vineyards in McLaren Vale grown by Ben Lacey. One in the Tatachilla sub region of southern McLaren Vale. Only a few kilometres from the sea and almost at sea level, it is a cool maritime influenced area of the Vale. Sandy loam over a shattered limestone base, scattered with ironstone fragments. This parcel was fermented in stainless steel, using a combination of natural and mixed culture yeasts. The second vineyard is in the Northern and high-altitude region of Seaview in McLaren Vale, with thin red loam over a solid limestone geology. The grapes were harvested with a selective harvester and tipped straight into an open fermenters as whole berries. Fermentation was allowed to occur naturally and then later over seeded with aromatic yeast. The ferment was allowed to tick away slowly for approx. 3 weeks. The final blend was 60% cold tank ferment, 40% full skin contact for three weeks.

Brown lime cordial, frangipani, lemon drops, nectarine and elderflower. A complex and refreshing nose that follows on to the palate with typical toasty nuts, nougat, and citrus. Medium-bodied and textural with a mouthfeel that radiates from the centre of the palate and clings to the side of the mouth. A juxtaposition of fat and skinny, soft but acidic, green but ripe. Superbly complex white wine from a warm climate.
