When a meal calls for a chardonnay, this is the one to get. Peaches, pears, a tiny squeeze of lemon, with a little butterscotch for good measure. The oak sits nicely in the background. Classy and flavoursome. Suits full flavoured white meat dishes.

Where do you start, there's so much to see in this modern-style Margaret River chardonnay. Here we go then - peaches, apricots, grilled nuts, creaminess, citrus and honeydew melon. Spicy lemony oak and fine acid lead to a long clean zippy finish. Would be magic with oysters or other delicate seafood.

Light straw with slight green edges. The nose shows hazelnuts, some mineral notes and undertones of citrus. Tight, lean complex citrus fruit with barrel complexity and nutty undertones. Long flavoured palate with excellent balance. The wine will continue to develop with careful cellaring for up to 5 years.

The 2007 Summers Chardonnay is an elegant and luscious wine, with pale straw colouring. The wine has an intense and complex nose showing sweet ripe fruits and subtle green melons, complimented with creamy hazelnut and warm stone fruit aromas. The palate is equally enticing with a rich, creamy mouth feel and melon flavours continuing from the nose. It is beautifully balanced with integrated oak along with mineral and lime acidity, and has terrific length. It is drinking well now and develop further complexities with correct short to mid-term cellaring.

Predominantly blend of Margaret River/Adelaide Hills material, with
5% from Pemberton; an elegant style that greatly appeals to me, with a marvelous end-palate and aftertaste. Score 94/100.

If sulphur in wine gives you a bad experience, then this one's for you. The full flavour of chardonnay is there, rich and peachy, and the flavour lingers. Nice with roast chicken.
