Tasting Notes
Pale bright straw gold, the China Terrace Chardonnay opens with delicate aromas of white flowers, typical of Bendigo’s expression of the variety. On the palate, the wine reveals sweet, pure fruit notes of citrus and peach, complemented by a subtle saline thread that enhances its mineral core. The wine is beautifully textured, with a clean, fresh structure that drives its long finish. This Chardonnay is vibrant and precise, with a remarkable balance of fruit purity and underlying complexity, making it a standout wine for those who appreciate a cool-climate style. With its fresh structure and purity, this wine will continue to evolve gracefully in the cellar for up to 10 years, developing even more complexity and depth over time
