This great valued Chardonnay is everything you come to expect when you think of the fuller flavoured Chardonnay, it has it all, honeycomg, cashew, nutty, long after taste, with a spicy toasted oak flavours.

Sexton pushes ripe citrus, green apple, nuttiness and a Parisian almond/marzipan character. It’s flinty too, minerals don’t escape, but the main gist is a wine of quiet power, depth, concentration and drive. Exceptional length, the finish is a starburst of flavour, then chalky and puckering. It opens up beautifully, indeed needs some time to reveal more and more, so you get a complex wine with incredible detail going on. Long term fans of the Giant Steps chardonnay world will recognise the pedigree here. It has it all.

The palate is finely balanced, with a creamy texture courtesy of the time on lees all supported by a linear backbone of acidity which combines to create an excellent length of flavour

This Chardonnay is a ‘traditional’ classic full-bodied wine made from premium quality grapes grown on the Mount Canobolas Vineyard and reflects the excellent characters derived from the cool growing season of the Orange Wine Region. This wine is a brilliant straw green with a touch of light yellow and gold.

The nose has melon like varietal fruit aromas, integrated with soft vanillin oak and butterscotch. On the palate it shows fresh and lifted cold climate Chardonnay fruit, with well integrated oak, displaying fullness, yet elegance. Clean and dry with superb lingering fruit and oak flavours complemented with a crisp acid finish.

While drinking well now, this wine will continue to improve for at least the next five years. This wine is ideal with curries, smoked salmon and vegetarian dishes.
