Talana Hill Chardonnay 2007

The wine reveals plenty of intense and rich aromas of toast, smoke, grapefruit and pineapple. The palate is layered with flavours of nutty, limes, butter and vanilla all well supported by the sensible oaking. There is an elegance, richness balance and complexity of fruit that lingers on the aftertaste.
