Rockcliffe Third Reef Chardonnay 2021

This is a range that has consistently improved in recent years and now delivers wines of great expression and quality. This is a beautiful chardonnay opening with notes of nectarine and quince on the nose. A splash of citrus adds aromas and tang. Neat balance with oak sitting comfortably within the intense fruit expression.
