Founder's Block Chardonnay 2018
2018 was an ideal vintage in Coonawarra. Harvest started slightly earlier with good rainfall in the leadup followed by a warmer and drier season than usual, producing outstanding Chardonnay.
The wine shows enticing peach, melon and citrus with subtle vanillin oak and a fresh lingering finish. Enjoy now or will cellar for up to five years.

One of our favourite Chardonnay's whilst sitting on The Verandah Bar at home ..beautiful creamy flavours with a nice hint of oak.

It's one of my 2 favourite Chardonnays - too easy to drink, even hubby likes it so I've got to share it :( Delicious aroma and tastes divine - will have to reorder when funds allow
