[SOLD-OUT] Bird On A Wire Chardonnay 2017

 

"It’s from the Willowlake vineyard in the Upper Yarra and it’s in a beautiful drinking place. It has flesh and flavour, excellent thrust and the length to match. Chalk, honeysuckle and loads of stone fruit. The press release suggests barbecued scallops as an accompaniment; it sounds terrific. Lovely wine" - Campbell Mattinson, Wine Advocate

 

"Yellow stonefruit, melon flesh, grapefruit and lemon pith/flesh, jasmine florals and a saline briny undertone. Pleasant creamy notes from the MLF and light cracker biscuit add to the depth. Just medium bodied. Spicy oak influences with an elegant, creamy mid palate giving way to puckering acidity, extending the dry, textural finish. Balanced and classy." Regan Drew, Vinonotebook

 

"This 2017 Bird On A Wire Chardonnay has a lovely richness of classic chardonnay flavours, woven together with beautiful fine acid and subtle phenolics. It has depth and elegance, reflecting classic Yarra Valley chardonnay sensibilities. It’s also versatile, vibrant and perfect for classy dishes with intricate flavours. You can enjoy a range of different foods with this wine, such as creamy shellfish, grilled tuna steaks, new potatoes in fresh herbs or some of those delectable creamy cows milk cheeses made famous by the French. Open this for a wonderful dinner at home with people you love to share good things with. You won’t regret sharing this lovely 2017 Bird On A Wire Chardonnay, typical of a great Yarra Valley vintage" - Bird on a Wire
