TN: Robert Bowen 'Burnside' Chardonnay 2018

G'da

One of a six pack purchased a few years ago, and from a top vintage and vineyard.

Medium yellow in colour. There's a depth to the colour which matches the nose - ripe yellow peaches, vanilla, and nectarines in abundance, with a delightful touch of struck match to open. The palate is similarly rich and full, with some savoury oak adding to the fruit flavours. There's a line of acid cutting through the richness, and this provides some elegance to the wine, which finishes long and satisfying.

Pretty much at its peak, and a timely reminder toopen the earlier vintages still in the cellar.

Cheers
