Having undergone malolactic fermentation to enhance texture and mouthfeel, this Deakin Estate chardonnay out of the Sunraysia region in Victoria delivers all those characteristics of stone fruit and toasty oak nuances, resulting in a fresh, balanced and elegant wine at a quite remarkable price point. With aromas of stone fruit, oak, vanilla, and hints of a biscuity yeast, the palate is quite full bodied, and has plenty of buttery oak, with white peach, pear, and hints of citrus. Try this wine with roast chicken, pan-seared salmon, or a pasta with a creamy sauce.
