Chardonnay 2017 – Black Market Deal #37654
- Fresh, juicy
- Adelaide Hills
For less than a tenner, I challenge you to find a better chardonnay than this! This is excellent drinking - tropical on the nose with white peach and guava providing a captivating aroma. Rather than being saturated, it’s all rather gentle and pretty with grapefruit adding some zest. Fruit flows over the plate which is gently assertive. It is persistent with good length and a driving acid keeping things fresh. Now you know about the wine - are you willing to take the challenge?

Region
Adelaide Hills
Don't kid yourselves, the Adelaide Hills are bigger and much more diverse than they seem. It stretches over 80km from the Barossa Valley in the North to McLaren Vale in the South. The area is so variable that small pockets such as Piccadilly and Longwood can only ripen marginal such as Chardonnay or Pinot Noir, whereas other specific areas are perfect for peppery Shiraz and ballsy Cabernet. A healthy mix of experienced hands and young hipsters ensure the region stays at the cutting edge of the industry. Natural wines, and new European varieties including Nebbiolo and Gruner Veltliner are some of the more recent highlights to keep an eye out for.
