This is the kind of wine that made Australian Chardonnay popular around the world. Big and bold styles – sunshine in the glass, with mouth-filling fruit matched up with plenty of oak. It is golden in colour and bursting with peach and nectarine fruits pumped up by butterscotch and vanilla oak complexity. The palate is then dry, full-bodied and creamy, with rich and voluptuous fruit underscored by tangy acidity. It is a crowd pleaser that will hit the spot for fans of old-school chardonnay.

Australian Grenache is killing it and this is a wine that if it is not the best grenache ever crafted in McLaren Vale, if not Australia, then it is very close. 98 Points from Winepilot.com but forget the score - it is a stunningly beautiful expression of Australian Grenache.
