The 2025 Fowles Stone Dwellers Chardonnay is a fresh and balanced Victorian Chardonnay made in a modern Australian style that focuses on purity of fruit and approachable texture. The nose is bright and expressive, showing aromas of peach, nectarine and citrus alongside subtle melon notes and gentle oak spice.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with crisp acidity and a smooth, rounded mouthfeel, delivering flavours of stone fruit, lemon curd and orchard fruit with subtle savoury complexity. The wine remains fresh and well-balanced, finishing clean with restrained oak influence and good length.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Chardonnay for customers who enjoy fresh, fruit-driven styles with balanced texture and moderate richness. Best enjoyed over the next 3–5 years while its fruit remains vibrant and expressive. Ideal with roast chicken, grilled seafood, creamy pasta dishes or pork cutlets.
