2022 Dalla Mia Finestra Chardonnay

Brilliant pale straw colour with greenish tinged edges and a watery hue. Expressive scents of ripe peach, dried honey and cashew are followed by some nougat, hints of crème brulee and spice. Beautifully refined the mid weighted palate features white peach, nectarine and cashew flavours over a back drop of dried honey and biscuity nougat characters. Gently creamy yet elegant mouthfeel concluding medium to long with a nicely balanced freshness.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
Alc. 13.2%

Upper Yarra Valley. 30% new oak. 100% malolactic fermentation.
Nectarine, lime, nuts, a little cedar and spice. It’s glossy and gently viscous, with a saline and savoury flavour, bright and tight citrus acidity through creaminess, lime and grapefruit, an edge of tropical fruit too, some pith-like texture and grip, with an intense and juicy citrus finish of excellent length. A bit different, and very good in that way too. Excellent. Drink 2023-2027.
