De Bortoli YV The Estate Vineyard Chardonnay 2023

Share

This is a tasty and unassuming drop from a cool season that drinks well by itself or with food. It shows delightful aromas of citrus, stone fruit, straw, and a touch of almond from a bit of bottle age. The palate is balanced and bright and it’d be a great wine for a summer barbecue or a creamy pasta dish.
