Penfolds Koonunga Hill Chardonnay

Tasting note:
Plenty of benchmark varietal characters on the nose. Orange blossom, cashews, toasted brioche, with nuanced nougat/spicy oak. There are subtle hints of gunflint and wet stone. A wine showing great complexity, hitting well above its weight division.

Impeccably balanced, with citrus to the fore, lemon curd and orange zest. Nougat and stone fruits create a creamy texture. Subtle oak provides texture and weight. Soft, round and generous with lovely refreshing acidity.

Additional information:
Koonunga Hill Chardonnay reflects Penfolds multi-region, multi-vineyard blending philosophy, which enables the winemaking team to source the best parcels of fruit to produce consistently high quality wines from each vintage. A light to medium-bodied Chardonnay with distinctive primary fruit characters and a subtle underlay of moderate oak.

Koonunga Hill Chardonnay mirrors its sister red wines as one of Australia’s best value white wines, offering quality at an affordable price.
