CHARDONNAY Visually the wine is engaging, nice green hues with a touch of straw. It has wonderful aromatics of white flower, white peach, zesty lime with a light sprinkle of oak spice. On the palate the wine exalts with white peach and limes, the mid palate layers with a grapefruit inspired mineral chalk texture and the finish is fresh with a cream layered softness. This all results in a wonderfully appealing wine, which is full enough to enjoy individually, but with the delicacy which makes it suitable with a juice roast chook.

The 2019 Mill Merlot, builds from the last release. The wine has an intense purple colour with reddish hues. Aromatically the wine displays red plums, forest fruits, and complimented with oak derived dark spices. On the palate the wines enters smoothly, with rich red fruits followed by a really nice silky mid palate mouth feel. The finish of the wine is contributed by well integrated oak, providing a finely structured finish. This wine is best suited to lighter meats, my go to would be a family Sunday pork roast with red wine jus.
This year’s wine is a more ripe style of Sauvignon Blanc, but what sets it apart from previous releases, is its increased intensity of passionfruit and tropical notes with minimal grass aroma and flavours. These typical characters are complimented with a well intentioned mouth filling texture. Fresh acidity adds to the refreshing nature of this wine. This wine is a great accompaniment to light salads, fresh seafood and warm, sunny afternoons.
