Description:

The 2005 vintage was outstanding for whites right throughout the Barossa with mild conditions for the whole vintage period. Crop levels were low and the grapes had high flavour intensity.  There was no disease pressure and the grapes achieved optimal ripeness easily.  Barrelled in twenty percent French oak for six months.

The colour is a mid straw.  The lifted nose has varietal Chardonnay fruit with white peach, a hint of apricot and a touch of spicy French oak.  The palate is medium bodied with peach nectar and a wonderful creamy mouthfeel.  The flavours are clean and lively.  The length is long with intense peach and buttery oak.  Will cellar up to two years.
