M&J Becker Ablington Vineyard Chardonnay, Hunter Valley 2022

A seamless integration of fruit and oak makes this Chardonnay complex yet approachable.

Aromas of ripe orchard fruits, including apples and pears, mingle with delicate citrus notes of lemon and grapefruit.
Subtle hints of toasted oak and a touch of vanilla add complexity and depth.
On the palate, this Chardonnay showcases flavours of juicy peaches and nectarines, layered with nuances of creamy butterscotch and a hint of hazelnut.
The wine's lush texture and balanced acidity provide structure and depth.
Its rich texture makes it an excellent companion to roasted chicken, grilled seafood, or creamy pasta dishes.

Unfined and unfiltered new world chardonnay full of fruit and subtle notes from the oak. Super textural and long on the finish. - Thom Allinson, OWC
