Bleasdale Adelaide Hills Chardonnay 2024 x 6
The Adelaide Hills is known for its ability to produce outstanding cool climate
Chardonnay grapes. Clonal selection and site diversity within the Hills offer complexity and
character. The Chardonnay fruit is handpicked directly into a refrigerated container, chilled all
day and during transport. The fruit is then delivered to the historic Bleasdale cellars at dusk for
whole bunch pressing in the cool of the evening.
Attractive stone fruit and citrus aromas with complexity from maturation on fermentation lees.
The palate is fine and long with persistent flavour supported by oak structure and length.
