TallarookChardonnay 2018
About this product
Smooth, powerful and intense wine of great complexity. Wild yeast, lees creaminess and elegant, well-integrated oak combine with Tallarook’s intense green melon and citrus flavours to form a harmonious palate with deeply satisfying texture and lingering, savoury after-taste. Cellaring for 5 years will see further complexity emerging.

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.

Hand-picked, whole-bunch pressed, cloudy juice fermented in French barriques (20% new), 50% wild, 50% Burgundy yeast, no mlf. Excellent pale straw-green hue; the palate is every bit as fresh, with grapefruit, white peach and apple fruit in command; clean finish.
