A subtle oak makes it an easy drinking chardonnay with a clean palate followed by a smooth buttery finish. It goes great with a truffle honey glazed chicken that was on our summer menu! "Yarra Valley Chardonnay is really going places these days, and the direction is restraint and complexity." The 2007 Sauvignon Blanc makes a great accompaniment to our new Goat's Cheese cheesecake made with Yarra Valley Goats cheese.
