Pale golden straw with vibrant green hues, the 2009 Oxford Landing Chardonnay displays lifted aromas of fresh peaches, citrus and honeydew. The bright, crisp flavours found in this wine are a result of extended lees contact, with no malolactic fermentation required. To add complexity a small portion of reserve wine from French oak barrels was included in the final blend. These factors have combined to contribute extra layers of complexity and texture to the wine, to enhance the powerful fruit drive of this wine.
