Shadowfax Geelong Chardonnay 2025 jean-louis-chave-selection there’s a brew of ripeDeeply concentrated, fruit characters of nectarine and pear envelop the palate whilst graphite oak and nutty undertones bring layers and depth to the finish. The maritime site is reflected in a minerality and saltiness which frames the wine. Finely intertwined acidity lifts and connects the parts which come together to form a powerful and memorable whole. A great example of maritime Chardonnay.
