Bellbrae Estate Longboard Chardonnay 2006
By David
On the way back from our visit to Riverland we had a few days with a friend in the sea side town Anglesea. Obviously we try and drink local wine when on tour so this was selected by Wendy. The nose has lovely fresh zingy nectarine aromas with a little honey and maybe a bit of peach. On the palate the same flavours are there and it seems quite nice but to our palates the level of residual sugar was too high. It reminded me of the Taylors Chardonnay we had earlier in the year except this had more obvious sweetness. I knew a winery that had this style about ten years ago and it raced out the door and I am sure at this price point some will like it, but Wendy didn’t have a second glass!
