2016 Ocean Eight Chardonnay Verve

Mornington Peninsula
Lean, smokey nose with mandarine fruit notes and only a hint of oak. On the palate the mandarine continues and there`s galia melon and a touch of apricot flavour too. Great acidity and freshness with real cut and structure. This is a really good wine that is versatile with food and just mouth-wateringly delicious on its own. (CW 12/07/21)

Richard Hemming MW

Dairy, leesy nose with discreet fruit. Subtle oyster-shell aromas too. The fruit emerges on the palate with pineapple, apple and citrus, plus a toffee character – although there`s no excess oak, and the body is very light. Mealy, savoury, appetising and lengthy. Great sophistication. 17 points
