Stonebridge Chardonnay 2019

Stonebridge Chardonnay 2019

From the estate’s Stonebridge Vineyard in Four Mile Creek comes this full-bodied, voluptuous Chardonnay that begins with aromas of baked pineapple, pecan, yellow plum and toffee. The same notes are reflected on a creamy palate with everything in balance and a lively vein of acidity suspending tension from start to finish. Toasty, warm oak flavours are well-integrated. A Maconnais-like profile that will be sure to appease any Chardonnay lover.
