Evoi Margaret River Chardonnay 2021
WineSpark Price €27.73
Nigel tells me Margaret River Chardonnay is selling like hotcakes in Australia right now - this wine is already sold out at his cellar door.
Which is great news for you, because you’re getting to taste a beautiful Chardonnay with a bit of age from one of the world’s premier wine regions.
Nigel started out on his own back in 2007 with two barrels of Chardonnay in his garage - and his simple recipe hasn’t really changed since.
He picks premium fruit off a rocky vineyard in the famed Wilyabrup area, and lets the juice ferment naturally. The wine then stays in barrel for 12 months.
You land up with a ripe, rich and refined Chardonnay, full of classic stone fruits, great texture and a lovely nutty finish.
If you’re a Chardonnay nut (like me), or you like your Burgundy whites, this is the wine for you.
