My kind of Chardonnay! Love the oak and toast on the nose.
Perfect malolactic for this wine.
Buttery but not fat, it retains its fresh apricot fruit and plenty of acidity. VERY good.

Now I know how this is made and I'm making vintage 2014 and the secret wild ferment additions.... I say advertise the fact! Wonderful.

Tried a selection of wines from Forester on tasting, the Chardonnay was the standout, and probably a stand out Chardonnay in general for me.

Big fruit, Lychee and white peach. Subtle, well integrated oak. Rich mid palate.

Great Can Sauv. Bought off recommendation from clerk at Chamber Cellars. Drunk over three nights during cold snap in Sydney. Would re-buy

Beautiful wine once it's reached it optimal temp for a chardy. Buttery and smooth and refreshing oaky yumminess. Bring on more of this!
