Description
Sophisticated and sexy, this wine is a Chardonnay connoisseur’s delight.
The fruit now possesses a complexity which is reflected in the glass and speaks truly of Longview’s terroir.
Wild yeast, barrel fermented vinification has delivered a wine with a rich mouthfeel, subtle nectarine and white peach flavours and a pristine acid line. Its gentle spice and slightly creamy finish is heightened by perfectly integrated French oak.

95 Points – James Halliday’s Wine Companion ‘WOW Factor Whites’ 2017. “The distinguished line-up of clones has obviously contributed to the complexity of the texture and flavour of this impressive chardonnay; it has layers of fruit, with some creaminess matching the crunchy natural acidity, and quality French oak providing another layer.

90 Points – Huon Hooke. “Light straw colour with a creamy yeast-lees aroma, with a tinge of smokiness. There’s a lot more to it than simple fruit. Oak is liberally utilised, the palate intense and deep, firm and tight, with good persistence.”
93 points – Mike Frost, The Courier Mail. “This complex estate-grown, Adelaide Hills white shows citrus and stone fruit on the nose and palate, with integrated French oak and a touch of creaminess from malolactic fermentation and nutty lees maturation. Enjoy over the next five years with chicken or pork dishes.”
