2005 Yarra Yering Chardonnay 雅拉艾琳酒莊霞多麗

The 2005 Chardonnay was aged in 30% new oak. Medium straw-colored, it has a bouquet of toast, vanilla, butter, and baked apple. Full-flavored, mouth-filling, and ripe, this medium to full-bodied Chardonnay is well balanced, with nicely integrated oak and acidity leading to a lengthy finish. Drink it over the next 4-6 years.

Owner Guill de Pury is a third generation winegrower and the individual responsible for the rebirth of grape growing in the Yarra Valley. His first vintage was 1974.
