2021 Corryton Burge Chardonnay

A lively, rich, round and creamy South Australian Chardonnay. Pale to yellow straw in colour. Aromatic, white nectarine, with hints of peach and pear. Palate provides generous fresh stone fruit and honey dew melon with a hint of creamy short bread richness all brought together with moderate acidity to provide balance.
