2023 Swings & Roundabouts Chardonnay
WINEMAKER’S NOTES
Our 2023 Chardonnay is a great example of Margaret River Chardonnay; balanced acidity and excellent varietal fruit flavours have resulted in a wine that has finesse and length of flavour. Typical of the fine-fruited style we make, it has some great potential to evolve in the bottle.
TASTING NOTES
