A superb, sophisticated Chardonnay from Master winemaker John Wade. Brilliant straw colour. Refined nose, whilst all the elements of barrel fermentation character are present, they are brilliantly integrated with one another, and although not altogether seamless, the nose begins to approach this quality. The depth and persistence of this wine is to be admired. Toasted French oak, biscuit, cashew, yeast lees are welded together and supported by a touch of toffee at the very end. Superb integration, perfect balance and exceptionally long biscuit, almond, toasted oak aftertaste. Cellar 5-6 years.
