Oddbins Wine Merchant - Snake Creek Premium Chardonnay

€8.49 with 20% discount for 12 mixed bottles

More subtle than an average Aussie Chardonnay. Interesting fruit flavours. e. 7.79 with 20% reduction for mixed cases of 12.

Tasting Notes : Zesty lemon and lime aromas precede a fresh, delicate and complex palate, with well integrated flavours of citrus, cashew nut and stone fruits.

Vintage : 2005
