Shaw & Smith
M3 Chardonnay
VARIETAL Chardonnay
REGION Adelaide Hills, Australia
ABV% 12.5%
FOOD PAIRING NOTES Try with pan fried whiting
PROFILE
The Shaw & Smith winery was built in 2000, providing the ability to whole-bunch press chilled grapes for the first time, and underpinning the evolution of style from that first M3 Chardonnay vintage in 2000 through to the present day. The most significant event since then came in 2012 with the purchase of the Lenswood vineyard. Chardonnay was originally planted in Lenswood for sparkling wine production but it now fulfils its potential for fine still wine, with finesse, flavour, and great natural acidity.
TASTING NOTES
Aiming for elegance, restraint and the ability to age: the acid brings freshness and there¿s generosity of flavour. Typically it shows white flowers, citrus, and nectarine notes. The palate is long and flavoursome, with mid-palate texture and bright acid. A note of brioche adds complexity.
Liquor Act
