The 2025 Wangolina Chardonnay is a fresh, cool-climate Chardonnay from South Australia's Limestone Coast, with fruit sourced from premium Padthaway vineyards. Made with minimal intervention, half the wine is matured in seasoned oak to build texture while the remainder stays in stainless steel to preserve its vibrant fruit. The nose is expressive with aromas of white peach, golden apple, honeydew melon and citrus blossom, complemented by a subtle mealy spice.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a smooth, creamy texture balanced by bright natural acidity. Flavours of ripe white peach, brown pear, lemon rind and crisp apple flow through to a long, refreshing finish with a delicate mineral edge and lively citrus lift. Enjoy now for its youthful freshness or cellar for the next 3–5 years.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Chardonnay lovers seeking a balanced style that's neither overly rich nor overly lean. Pair it with grilled prawns, roast chicken, creamy pasta, pan-seared salmon or soft cheeses. Serve lightly chilled to showcase its vibrant fruit, creamy texture and refreshing finish.
