This vibrant Chardonnay exhibits lifted fruit character, bright tangerine fleshiness, textural mouth-feel, a bright palate and a long and foodie finish. The judicious addition of blob of oaked Chardonnay adds palate weight and texture.

Quintessentially Australian, this range offers consistent quality, hugely appealing, commercial wine styles that have gained a loyal following. Reflecting the skill and experience in seeking out the very best of regional Australia, Boutinot's wines capture ideal climatic conditions and pure varietal definition. They've done a great deal of work on improving the sourcing of these wines in recent years to ensure they get great consistency and quality year in, year out and this is really starting to show now.

Long standing working relationships with growers enable Boutinot to source premium fruit, with the ultimate aim of making excellent quality Australian house wines with true style and character.

Once in the cellar, they are gently crushed to maintain the bright, fresh flavours crucial to the clonal tang. Around 15% of the grapes are sourced from the cooler, sea breeze influenced Langhorne Creek area. This portion is barrel aged in French medium toast casks to obtain a more complex, textural and weighty style of wine. It is then added to the greater part of the blend which is fermented in temperature controlled stainless steel to retain the fresh fruit characters.

Full-flavoured fish such as trout or halibut or chicken in a light creamy sauce.
