Unwooded Chardonnay

2011 Barossa Chardonnay

The Schild Estate Unwooded Chardonnay from the Barossa region is a delightful expression of this iconic varietal, showcasing a vibrant and refreshing white wine. With a light body, this wine offers a pleasingly crisp palate that is beautifully balanced by its bright acidity, creating a mouthwatering experience. The fruit intensity is pronounced, with enticing aromas and flavors of green apple, citrus, and pear that sing harmoniously together. This Chardonnay is bone dry, making it an excellent choice for those who enjoy clean and focused wines. The absence of oak maturation allows the purity of the fruit to shine, resulting in a refreshing and easygoing wine that is perfect for any occasion.

Region:


Barossa

One of Australia's best-known wine regions, the Barossa Valley sits an hour north of Adelaide, where many of the country's most famous wineries are based. In this historic region, old bush vines—some dating back as far as 1860—produce full-bodied wines of dramatic depth and scope, principally from Shiraz, Grenache and Cabernet Sauvignon. But Shiraz is the region's most popular varietal, with "Barossa Shiraz" almost a recognized brand in its own right, due to its concentrated flavors of juicy black fruit, plush tannins and the sweet spice of American oak. But whites are equally classy here, too, with Barossa's fresh, unoaked Sémillons and always captivating lush Chardonnays.
