De Bortoli First Block Chardonnay (SC)

Chardonnay by de Bortoli from Riverina, Australië. Full-bodied wine with aromas of peaches, melon and hints of vanilla and oak. On the palate, a nice balance of fruit and acidity, slightly toasty with a creamy aftertaste. This wine consists of 100% Chardonnay. The wine has had oak barrel aging, with 93% of it in American oak barrels and the remainder in French oak barrels. This for 4 weeks, to find a nice balance between the wood and the fruity taste of the wine.
