Chardonnay from South Australia, Australia: Oxford Landing Chardonnay 2008


Pale gold with vibrant green hues, the 2008 Oxford Landing Chardonnay has lifted aromas of fresh peaches, citrus and honeydew melons with an underlying hint of nougat and nutmeg spice. The wine had an even textured palate with stone fruit, green tropical and citrus flavours. The fine, creamy texture, is a result of extended lees contact after fermentation, and is balanced off by a refreshing acidity and lingering citrus peel flavours on the finish.
