Willow Bridge EstateG1-10 Chardonnay
About this product
Full flavoured, complex and textural, yet still lively and refreshing with refined tight grain french oak offering backbone support. Winemaking exudes minimalist technique to allow expression of site. Bright staw in colour. Lifted citrus, white peach, lemon blossom and almond with intriguing complex elements of fine French oak. A precise palate of harmonious oak teamed with intense stone fruit, citrus and flint like palate, with a long flowing texture leading to fine acidity and spiced oak nuances.

The acidity punctuates the yellow peach fruit, giving it lift and life. The oak is evident, as in vintages prior (usually a positive feature of the wine), and shapes the fruit in the mouth. It is still very pert (and a touch metallic) at this stage, however will likely settle in a year or so. In the immortal words of Doc (Back to the Future), 'The future isn't written yet, it can be changed'. Who knows. But it's good now.
