Freycinet Chardonnay 2022
Freycinet Chardonnay, hailing from Tasmania's renowned East Coast wine region, is a distinguished expression of cool-climate viticulture. This wine typically exhibits a bright, golden hue and an enticing bouquet of citrus and stone fruits, complemented by subtle notes of vanilla and toasted oak from careful barrel aging. On the palate, it offers a harmonious balance of vibrant acidity and creamy texture, with flavors of green apples, nectarine and melons, with a hint of grapefruity zing. It’s layered with a creamy texture from partial maololactic fermentation which leads to a long, elegant finish. Freycinet Chardonnay is celebrated for its complexity, finesse, and the ability to evolve gracefully through to 2030
