Highland HeritageMt Canobolas Chardonnay 2019
About this product
The colour is a vibrant light to mid straw with tinges of pale green. The nose shows peach and melon characters with subtle spicy vanilla wood characters. Undertones of cashew, butterscotch and vegemite “umami” from extended lees contact and careful oak selection. The pallet is showing rich peach and pear fruit with spicy undertones. Extended lees contact in French Oak barriques adds dimension and length to the wine providing great texture, intense flavour through the length of the pallet. The wines finished dry with crisp acidity and a gratifying creamy finish.

Medium bodied white wines have a lightly textured mouthfeel with moderate flavour impact. Often pale lemon coloured to pale gold.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

THE REAL REVIEW
Light yellow hue, the bouquet is subdued and shy, with some peach and rockmelon nuances, the palate fruit-driven and straightforward, but pleasantly flavoured and balanced. 16 APR 2020
