Tasting Notes
Wakefield Wines St Andrews Chardonnay 2021. An elegant, cool-climate Chardonnay grown in the Clare Valley's continental climate with warm days and cool nights, this Chardonnay captures vibrant fruit freshness without sacrificing textural richness.

The finish lingers fresher than many New World Chardonnays, with a floral lift and subtle spice notes.
