Tasting Notes - Deviation Road Chardonnay 2006 (recommended)

Mmm - my kind of Chardonnay. Pale lemon colour. This wine had a fresh, lively aroma of nectarine, citrus and vanilla. The palate weight was light to medium with a silky smooth texture. The wine has only seen a touch of oak influence but it has way more complexity than your typical unoaked Chardonnay. Clean, pure fruit flavours, nectarine and melon with some nougat and yeasty flavours at the back of the palate. Very interesting, very Adelaide Hills and very drinkable! Would retail for around $20
