Nice little entry level Chard. Fresh and light with a bit of cream and spice on the nose. Need +\+ acid with green apple and walnut on the palate. Finish is a touch short and heavy on green Apple skin.

Bob and Sandy Oatley, founders of Rosemount Estate, began their next wine venture to pay tribute to the many terrific regions of Australia and the grapes most suited to the terroir, Margaret River being one of those regions. Aromas of white flesh fruits with citrus and spice. On the palate apple, pear and some peach flavors with citrusy accents and smoky oak notes. Nice weight, balance and richness, medium finish. Great value.

By FAR one of my most favorite Chardonnay's I have ever tasted. (It might have something to do with paddling down the Margaret River when I was 15) The nose has slight fruit with a nice amount of acid on the palate with peach. What a great wine to sip on.

375mL. Premium wine sold on United flights. This was surprisingly good. Kind of understated. Reminded me of an austere Meursault. Light touch on the oak.

Lovely pear, apple and melon fruit with high toned acidity and touches of smoky mineral.Some barrel influnce in the back. Great balance and value.

Very balanced with an interesting, tropical nose. Some vanilla on the finish but not overpowering.
