Shadowfax Macedon Chardonnay 2023 750ml

Colour: Light straw, green hue and brilliant clarity.

Aroma: This distinctive Macedon ranges chardonnay bursts from the glass with lime, peach fuzz and white florals. Hints of lees derived nougat, fresh brioche and mineral notes are complexed with toasty oak notes. The perfume is persistent and intriguing, belying the complex and powerful wine beneath.

Palate: Grapefruit and tangerine fruits spill immediately onto the palate. The fruit flavours are augmented with wild ferment characters such as brioche and barrel warmth. The palate is very full and luscious, with a line of acid pulling the wine in, whilst adding length. The wine is textured with almond meal like characters added another element. A great example of cold climate Macedon Ranges Chardonnay.

Food Pairing: Ginger scallop dumpling; Wild mushrooms on toast; Roast chicken.
