Château Tanunda Grand Barossa Chardonnay 2023

A percentage of the grapes harvested here spent time fermenting in older French oak with the intention of increasing the complexity of the wine, while maturation includes some new French barrels. Deep yellow hue, this is poised and taut. We have notes of hay, citrus, peaches, a touch of nuts and the merest hint of oak dust. There is a supple palate which sees the peach characters come to the fore. Showing medium to good length, fine balance and underlying supporting acidity, this will provide pleasure over the next four to five years.
