Petaluma Yellow Label Picadilly Valley Chardonnay 750mL

Description

The oak adds cashew and toasty notes whilst controlled malolactic fermentation provides a hint of butter and an added depth of flavour. The extended time in oak on lees has helped develop additional texture and hints of flint in the wine.

The palate displays more stone fruit characteristics which are complemented by subtle oak spice and a fine, creamy texture from both time spent on lees and partial malolactic fermentation. The wine has a lingering finishes comprised of grapefruity pith driving the acid . The wine has great ability to develop beautiful complexity with age.
