About this product
As a young winemaker travelling the globe, the 'Old World' Chardonnay that Ben Riggs fell in love with in the 1980's were described as 'like drinking cold chalk soup', and have inspired him to make this beloved Adelaide Hills Chadonnay. Over the years Ben has been searching for the perfect cold site to make a dry Chardonnay renowned for the purity of its aroma and taste.

Very rich and complex to sniff, butterscotch, toasted nuts, very inviting. Liberal oak. The palate is rich and savoury, a carbon copy of the nose, with good intensity and fleshiness. It fills the mouth and is soft, round and complete. Classical chardonnay.
