Tasting Note

Flinty and layered, this Southern Margaret River Chardonnay shows finesse and depth. Aromas of kaffir lime, grilled peach and fresh ginger mingle with struck match and nougat from wild ferment. The palate is powerful yet precise, with a mealy texture, chalky phenolics and a long, savoury acid line.

Product Notes

McHenry Hohnen Laterite Hills Chardonnay is a Margaret River wine that showcases the region’s affinity for elegant, expressive Chardonnay. Aromas of citrus, white peach and melon mingle with subtle notes of roasted nuts and gentle spice. On the palate, ripe stone fruit is balanced by bright acidity, lending the wine freshness and poise. Its texture is rounded yet refined, with savoury nuances adding depth to the finish. Enjoy it lightly chilled with roast chicken, grilled fish or creamy pasta. Equally appealing on its own, it offers a style that combines generous fruit character with a sense of restraint and balance.
