What’s it like?

Jordan Chardonnay 2008 - this is the “wooded” one. Pale gold in colour with good fruit on the nose.  Strong fruit flavours on the palate with a long finish. It’s not the typical big buttery style, it’s more refined and elegant, more a combination of new world and old. Awarded a Decanter Silver Medal, and 4 stars from John Platter.
