The 2023 Fat Bastard Chardonnay Bagnum (1500ml) is a rich, full-flavoured Chardonnay crafted in a bold and indulgent style that has made the label a worldwide favourite among lovers of buttery Chardonnay. The nose is expressive and generous, showing ripe peach, grilled pineapple and apricot aromas layered with vanilla, butterscotch, toasted oak and creamy butter notes.
On the palate, it is full-bodied and luscious with a smooth, velvety texture. Tropical fruit, baked stone fruit and hints of caramel and spice are balanced by soft acidity, leading to a long, creamy and satisfying finish. The Magnum format is perfect for entertaining, celebrations or sharing at the table.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a go-to Chardonnay for customers who enjoy rich, creamy and classic old-school Chardonnay styles with plenty of flavour and texture. Perfect with roast chicken, creamy pasta, seafood, grilled salmon or casual entertaining. Best enjoyed now and over the next 2–3 years.
