About the wine
"Fresh, buttery, a real pleasure to savour." - Kerry, Angel
- Angel Malcolm says: "This is a delightful Chardy. The full 5 hearts (would be 7 if I could) had to "fight" the Mrs to get a sip in edge wise, always the sign of a fine white wine when I barely get a look in!" Angels have given this wine rave reviews - check them out below. "Wow! A superbly well-balanced Chardy," enthused Lars. "Lovely fruit, a good dose of oak and butter, a delicate touch of acidity. Classy indeed." Or this ripper: ""Drank in the bath on my birthday, went down a treat." - Andrea.
- This is a complex, layered Chardonnay. It showcases grapes from Mount Barker, the coolest of WA’s Great Southern subregions. The Collector Chardonnay grapes come from low yielding 30-year-old vines with a high natural acidity and fruit purity. Winemaker Coby Ladwig has delivered a wine with an elegant bouquet of stone fruit, citrus blossom and toasty notes. In your mouth, this wine has both elegance and power, combining a flinty undertone with white peach and wild ferment flavours.
- To make the most of its wonderful flavours, just chill this drop slightly, to 15 degrees. It was fermented in French Oak barrels with 40% new oak. While it was busy doing its thing to become delicious, Coby gave it a stir after a few months which gave the wine some great weight and texture from the lees.
