[SOLD-OUT] Giaconda Chardonnay 2016

Gourmet Traveller 98 Points!

"The colour is mid-yellow, unfiltered so it's not 100% bright, with aromas of chicken stock, nougat and roasted hazelnuts. Low-level sulphides are part of the style. It's very full-bodied, rich and generous with a fruit-sweet middle and velvet texture. Great Chardonnay."

- Gourmet Traveller Aug/Sep 2018, 98 Points!


 

Our chardonnay fruit is hand picked, lightly crushed and then basket pressed - before being transferred to French oak barrels (approximately 30% new) for fermentation and ageing.


Golden hue with a bright green rim. A complex signature of reductive characters; meal, the 'good dirt' and matchstick complimenting hazelnut and peach notes infused with lemon zest and ginger. The palate is taut and compact with a strong mineral edge drawing out white peach fruit. A powerful and assertive example of chardonnay that combines multifaceted flavours with latent power. The finish is compelling: minerality and acidity combine to a rapier sharp finish.
