THE QUAFFER CHARDONNAY DEAL OF THE YEAR
It's been ages since we've sold a chardonnay this good for $9.99!
TROPHY - BEST IN SHOW | Riverland Wine Show
TROPHY - BEST WHITE WINE | Riverland Wine Show
GOLD MEDAL | Riverland Wine Show
What a deal. This delightful Aussie Chardonnay was crowned Champion Wine of Show at the 2020 Riverlands Wine Show beating off a host of other contenders from a wine region that accounts for 25% of Australia's total wine crush. Boom!
As part of the wider Yalumba portfolio, we've always supported Oxford Landing, but it's been years since we looked at it seriously - and what a surprise the 2020 is (!) Expect really punchy flavours in the ripe peach / stone fruit spectrum with good creamy mouthfeel and nicely pitched acidity. There's even some wood spice notes shining through and the overall result is very satisfying - and unbelievably good considering the humble price point. Super-slick packaging completes a compelling argument to go long.
Barking mad value at our $9.99 case price.
Vegetarian and vegan friendly.
The winery writes "Pale straw green in colour. Yellow peach and ripe nectarine aromas with wild honey and hints of lemon myrtle. These are supported by freshly cut hay and cinnamon spice complexities from wild fermentation. Layers of flavour build across the medium bodied palate reflecting not only the fruit but the use of wild fermentation and ageing on yeast lees. The slightest hint of oak comes through on the palate as a hint of cinnamon and spice, highlighting the complexity derived from barrel matured reserve wine. Balanced acidity gives the wine thrust through to the refreshing finish."
