Tasting Notes

The archetypal Ten Minutes By Tractor Chardonnay and in classic form here. Wallis typically has more acidity, and this year it has delivered a perfectly poised wine. An unmistakeable edge of Sao and a dash of caramel on the nose, the full palate flush with butterscotch flavours, the acidity a further punch after a power packed middle. Light on its feet, yet a seriously powerful wine in top form.
