Stockman’s Ridge Outlaw Chardonnay 2017
Share
Always great to see a wine given time in the cellar before release, especially a complex white wine. It happens too rarely. From the Orange district, this wine saw barrel fermentation in new French oak. Deep yellow hue, with flecks of lime, the oak integration has proceeded well. We have notes of citrus, guava, melon, herbs, quince and more lemony notes, especially on the palate, with hints of stonefruit as well. There are still touches of oak evident, but the wine is well balanced and offers good length. Enjoy this now and for a further three to four years.
