MENU’s Wine of the Week Journey’s End Destination Chardonnay 2014


This lovely chardonnay was brought by friends who joined us for Sunday lunch. It would be the ideal wine to go with the prawns. Golden peaches, vanilla, citrus on the nose with a hint of wood

On the palate, this big wine is rich and full of sweet fruit, a rounded mouthful of ripe peaches, bananas and toasty wood and marmalade which lingers. It has a nice mineral edge on the end with more citrus
The currently available vintage is the 2016. It was not tasted for Platter 2018 but the The currently available vintage is the 2016. It was not tasted for Platter 2018 but the 2016 & 2017 editions gave it 4 stars
