Darling Reserve Bush Vines Chardonnay 2026

An array of white pears, pineapple and lemon are the flavours on the nose that will follow through on the palate. A fruitful wine with a good mid palate, that ends off with a zesty lemon finish.

This wine is the perfect companion with a gourmet chicken salad or Indian curry dish. Will also pair well with fish and seafood.

Darling Cellars Reserve is a wine range of straight varietals where the focus is on fruit-driven, varietal true, value-for-money wines. The grapes were harvested from dryland farmed vineyards in Darling, where the vines are not trellised and planted as bush vines.
in the vineyard : The grapes were harvested from dryland farmed vineyards in Darling, where the vines are not trellised and planted as bush vines on a combination of laterite soils 15 km from the Atlantic Ocean. These grapes ripen as nature intended without human intervention, we do monitor vineyards for optimal picking times, adopting a combination of sampling and tasting to optimize the richer tropical (thiol) notes.
about the harvest: The grapes were harvested from dryland farmed vineyards in Darling.
in the cellar : Crush and destalk, 14 days fermentation at 14-15°C. Grapes and juice are handled reductively to prevent oxidation. Maturation: Left on lees for 3 months to add complexity.
