Favourite Son Chardonnay 75cl. 2022
Pour this cold and the whole room relaxes. It's a sunny, fruit-forward Australian Chardonnay that leads with ripe pineapple and mango, then keeps things dry and clean instead of heavy. No oak bomb, no fuss. Just a glass you actually want a second pour of. Friday night in, friends on the balcony, a fish off the grill. We'll have it at your door fast, ice-cold timing optional but recommended.
Stick your nose in and it's tropical straight away. Pineapple and ripe mango, with a soft vanilla hum sitting underneath like a backing vocal. The first sip is all that juicy fruit, but it stays dry, so it never goes sticky or sweet on you. There's a gentle freshness that keeps each mouthful lively, then it bows out clean. Easy to follow, hard to put down.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
This comes from Parker Coonawarra Estate, a family winery John and Faye Parker started back in 1985 in Coonawarra, down in South Australia. Coonawarra is famous for a thin strip of terra rossa, a rich red soil sitting over limestone, that growers there treat like gold. The estate built its name on serious Cabernet, and that same attention to detail shows up in this Chardonnay. It's a James Halliday five-star winery, so these are people who know exactly what they're doing.
