Bay of Fires Chardonnay 2017

· by · in Tasting Notes. ·

Bay Of Fires draw from the Derwent Valley and the East Coast of Tasmania for quality chardonnay fruit for their top still white marque.

Bay of Fires, Chardonnay, Tasmania, 2017

 

 

Enticing and complex stonefruit over classy vanilla creme oak, with flinty sulphides, crushed smoky nettle, rich lemon/lime concentrate and a little chicken salt. Layered, full, complex yet dances lightly and youthfully with a fine, linear finish. Focused, with precision and tension, each sip of a revisit shows richness or austerity. Excellent.

RRP: $50.99
Alc: 13.5%
Rating: 19/20
