1 June 2020The Next Big Thing Chardonnay
£11.50
This Australian Chardonnay comes with the faintest whiff of biscuity oak. Bright and tangy, this Barossa Chardonnay is an absolute delight. It has that classical Barossa charm, elegance, poise, tang and naggingly more-ish elusive something-or-other which makes one wonder why there isn’t more Australian Chardonnay. Pairs superbly with anything with chicken, pork, prawns, seafood… Brilliant on its own or perfect with a lovingly cooked meal.

Grapes are hand harvested from an old block on the Binder family Barossa vineyards. Small batches of Chardonnay are picked and pressed through a tank press with some skin contact. 25% is fermented in French puncheons and American hogsheads for 6 months, aged on lees then blended with the 75% unoaked juice, settled and bottled. Into the main Barossa blend a small component of Eden Valley Chardonnay is blended and the whole sees a tiny bit of secondary use oak for some fine structure.
