2012 Fat Bastard Chardonnay

God Bless America for big, rich buttery textured Chardonnay

With the current trend of Australian winemakers to produce, lighter, fresher and more elegant styles of Chardonnay, this wine brings welcome relief to those looking for a big fully worked style. Bright straw colour with pale gold edges and a watery hue. Intense ripe peach, honeycomb and butterscotch aromas waft from the glass followed by some nougat, cashew and spice. Big, rich and creamy but with just the right amount of freshness preventing it from being fat or blowsy, the palate features mouthfilling flavours of honeycomb and ripe peaches with light butterscotch infusions followed by cashew, nougat and spicy toasty oak. Rich, round texture with a clean dry finish. Long aftertaste of honeycomb, nougat, butterscotch, cashew and spicy toasted oak. Incredible value. Bravo!
Drink over the next 3-4 years.
