About the wine
Elegant, creamy Chardonnay from your South Australian winemaking star
- Crisp fruity flavors of juicy peach give way to a touch of toasty spice in this rich, creamy Chardonnay from your South Australia expert Sam, with a plush, mouth-filling smoothness that lingers on through a long, luxurious finish.
- Thanks to your funding, Sam was able to access sought-after vineyards in South Australia’s Victoria region and blend fruit from warmer pockets of vineyards with a portion of grapes from cooler sites, bringing you the signature fruitiness and complexity of classic Aussie Chard.
- This world-class Chardonnay is a Down Under delight with a huge savings to boot. Bring home a bottle and reward yourself for funding the world’s best winemakers like Sam – you deserve it!
Best before
This is a drink-now wine, though it also has the ability to age well for up to 2 years.
Serving advice
53-57ºF is the ideal serving temperature for this wine. You don't want it too cold, as the flavors will be hidden. If you have the time, try pulling your bottle out of the fridge half an hour before enjoying it, to let the wine warm up just a touch.
Food match
This Chardonnay goes perfectly with any grilled fish and makes for a decadent pairing with sushi and sashimi.
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Sam Plunkett
- Sam is one of our Australian All-Stars. He garnered lots of attention as the award-winning winemaker at Plunkett Fowles.
- But Plunkett Fowles hit rough waters and Sam wasn't sure he'd be able to stay in the wine business...until he became Angel funded. Your support put his startup on the map.
- Now Sam is off to the races – with the same dedication to quality winemaking that won so many accolades at Plunkett Fowles – and none of the bother about sales and marketing.
