The award winning Gold Series from Lavina includes this elegant Chardonnay, which is sourced from the world-renowned Barossa Valley in South Australia.
The 2010 Vintage was one of the best in memory with perfect rainfall and a mild summer allowing grapes to create beautifully balanced acidity, flavour and intensity. The wine is an outstanding example of premium Chardonnay fruit with balance, complexity and freshness. The Gold Series 2010 Chardonnay is an elegant, refined and soft textured wine.
The wine has a pale straw colour with a faint green hue. The bouquet is alive with lifted aromas of citrus blossom, stone fruit and pear. This all leads to a fresh palate of lychee, white peach and a complex array of stone fruits, melon and citrus. Integration of light oak and a soft acidity result in a beautifully balanced wine with a fine lingering finish.
This Chardonnay is a perfect compliment with an array of cuisines or simply be consumed on its own. Always serve chilled and enjoy now.
