Description
Geoff and Robert Schrapel of Bethany Wines have a long family history of grape growing in Australia’s Barossa Valley. The fruit for this barrel-fermented Chardonnay is sourced from their vineyards in the foothills of the hot Barossa Valley and cooler Eden Valley. Expect lots of orchard fruits along with a subtle hint of spicy oak and good acidity. A beautifully balanced wine.
Tasting Note
The nose expresses white peach, green apple and honeyed floral notes. Lovely structured palate with tight acidity complementing the rich orchard fruit and toasty oak flavours before a long intense finish.
