The 2025 Heirloom Assen’s Fortalice Chardonnay is a refined single-vineyard white from the Adelaide Hills, South Australia. The nose shows lemon, lime and stone fruit with peach, apricot and subtle vanilla notes.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with bright acidity, creamy texture and well-integrated oak. Fresh citrus and stone fruit lead to a clean, crisp and gently savoury finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for Chardonnay drinkers who enjoy fresh fruit, creamy texture and subtle oak complexity. Enjoy it now or cellar for 4–6 years. Ideal with roast chicken, grilled salmon, scallops or mushroom risotto.
