2016 Ashbrook Estate Chardonnay, Margaret River punches well above it's weight. White nectarine, warm brioche notes. The French oak allows the fruit to shine, whilst sitting comfortably off stage. A serious bargain, that will allow you to keep your hands off the comparable yet pricier numbers.
A pure, yet complex example of Margaret River Chardonnay with half the wine matured for eight months in French oak barriques, and the remainder in stainless steel tanks to retain fruit freshness and vibrancy. The finished wine is cellared on the Estate for another 12 months to ensure total balance and harmonization between fruit purity and oak complexity. Will reward cellaring over the next 5 years.
