The fruit for this wine was sourced from our King Valley vineyards, processed and bottled on the Paul Bettio King Valley Estate. The Chardonnay grapes were crushed and lightly pressed to stainlesss steel tanks and allowed to cold settle for twenty four hours. Once settled, the juice was racked from its solids and yeast added to allow 100% stainless steel fermentation to retain its' fruit characters. Our 2009 Chardonnay is a medium dry style with gentle stone fruit characters - hints of peach, honeydew and banana tones. A fresh, delicate wine designed to be consumed as a youngster and made without the influence of oak. This wine is well suited to a wide range of food: seafood pizza, light pasta or salad dishes, grilled chicken breast or fresh oysters.
