Gippsland Wine Company Chardonnay 750ml

They say, "On the nose, roasted hazelnuts, orange blossom, spiced baked pear, brioche and honeyed baklava notes. Ripe quince, mandarin, nougat, dried thyme, join those characters on the palate with the warm spice and vanillin French oak."

It's all about the microclimates, baby. From carefully selected single-vineyard sites in Gippsland, vigneron Mark Heath and winemaker Marcus Satchell (of Dirty Three fame) produce small-batch wines bursting with flavour. Combined with a label this fancy, it's the perfect wine to bring to the dinner party.
