Jacob's Creek Cellar Australia Chardonnay 2023

Product Description

Winery Overview

Founded in 1847 in the Barossa Valley, Jacob’s Creek is one of Australia’s most trusted names in wine. The Cellar range reflects the brand’s focus on approachable, fruit-driven wines that still capture the essence of quality winemaking. The Chardonnay 2023 continues that tradition, offering freshness, balance and a touch of subtle oak.

Region and Vintage Conditions

Sourced from select vineyards across South Australia, the 2023 vintage benefited from a mild growing season with steady ripening and good natural acidity. The result is a well-balanced Chardonnay with vibrant fruit expression and soft texture, ideal for easy enjoyment.

Winemaking Techniques

The fruit was harvested at night to preserve freshness and flavour. A portion of the blend was fermented and matured in oak to add complexity, while the rest retained its crisp fruit character through cool stainless-steel fermentation. The combination delivers a Chardonnay that is both lively and smooth, with just the right touch of oak.
