Thomas Hordern Wiley Rooster Chardonnay 2015
About the wine
New world wonder!
- This is an absolutely cracking Chardonnay, and Angels - you've made it happen! Sit back and enjoy the fruits of Thomas' hard work and tender loving care. It's a great example of New World Chardonnay, more restrained than the over the top buttery style of old.
- Perfect for those looking to dip their toe in the dark world of Chardonnay, it's aromas of white peach and citrus are gorgeous. The palate mixes lovely stone fruits and a hint of creaminess, giving a balance and acidity that leaves you wanting more.
- With the last vintage racing out the door, this Chardy's popularity has left Angels in great anticipation of a new vintage, so snap up a few bottles of this unbelievably value-packed wine while it's here!
Best before
Enjoy now while fresh and young, or you will be rewarded as per usual with a touch of patience, any time until 2018.
Serving advice
Serve slightly chilled. Not Baltic cold but chilled is delightful.
Food match
A beautiful piece of salmon slightly spiced and cooked in butter with hand cut sweet potato chips. A platter of your favourite cheeses will also pair perfectly!
Contains sulphites
