Grape(s): 100% Chardonnay

Localization: Barossa Valley, Australia

Tasting Notes: The wine has a pale yellow color. The wine has dominant peach aromas with a hint of pineapple juice on the nose. The palate has intense peach and pineapple characters. The mid palate is soft and creamy.

Notes: Crushed, de-stemmed and then pressed using a membrane press. The ferment was kept slow and cool to retain all the natural flavours and aromatic qualities. The juice was fermented in stainless steel tanks at a cool temperature to retain all the natural flavors and aromatic qualities. The wine was blended, clarified, filtered, and then bottled soon afterward so the wine was a true expression of the grape/terroir from which it was made.

The Domain: Milton Park is home to the Thorn-Clarke winery in South Australia, owned and operated by the Clarke family with six generations of grape growing and winemaking heritage. The Milton Park range of wines is made from grapes sourced from estate vineyards and other select vineyard sites in South Australia, allowing consistent quality year to year.

Consisting of Chardonnay and Shiraz, the Milton Park range displays bright varietal fruit character complimented by the restrained use of oak. These wines are excellent for everyday drinking and a fine example of what South Australian vineyards are capable of producing.
