Carrick Bannockburn Chardonnay 2021

Released after at least 6 months of bottle age, the Bannockburn Chardonnay is classic, full-bodied white wine with toast, citrus and marmalade notes. Serve slightly chilled and enjoy with pasta, chicken or grain salads.

The Carrick Bannockburn Chardonnay makes up part of the estate range, representing the varietal classics or core range.

Carrick’s wind-swept site and glacial alluvial soils help to define the acidity of this wine, which balances the citrus and stone fruit characters, as well as giving length and flow. It is made from hand-picked organically grown Chardonnay, from some of the oldest vines on the property

“Fresh apricots, candied lemon and toast can be found on the nose. Following on to the palate alongside a grapefruit marmalade twist. It is rich, full-bodied, yet lively, with a long finish" - Winemaker Rosie Menzies
