This racy and refined Reserve Chardonnay from TarraWarra Estate was awarded a 5-star rating by pre-eminent wine critic James Halliday for good reason - it sets a new benchmark in Australian winemaking.
The fruit for this outstanding wine was chilled, bunch pressed and then left to settle overnight before being racked for barrel fermentation. Each batch was kept separate during vinification.
This 5-star James Halliday rated wine is medium straw with a green tint in the glass and allures with the light and ethereal aromas of fig, grapefruit, melon, spice and
a fantastic minerality. It’s racy and fresh with nectarine and white peach, balanced by natural acidity and a nutty persistence.
The refined oak adds flavour and texture without dominating. This is a truly remarkable wine that sets a new benchmark in Australian winemaking.
