TASTING NOTES :

This Silver medalist Barossa Valley Chardonnay 2022 boasts ratings of 90 and 93 points, embodying the essence of Southern Barossa’s winemaking heritage. This Chardonnay, a harmonious blend from the Barritt Vineyard alongside the original Schild family estate and select parcels on Church Road, showcases the excellence achievable with mature vines in this renowned region. At 13% alcohol, it presents a clear, bright pale lemon appearance, inviting the senses with aromas of ripe lemon citrus, fresh nectarine, and peach, beautifully intertwined with hints of mineral bath salts and white iris flowers. The palate experiences a delightful balance, where lemon citrus flavours marry a fresh mineral acidity for a soft, controlled finish. Further complexity is added through additional lees stirring, enhancing its roundness and depth. With its perfect pairing with white meats and vegetables, such as a Chicken and Mushroom Risotto, this Chardonnay stands as a proud representation of the Schild Estate's commitment to quality and authenticity.
