The 2025 West Cape Howe Regional Range Old School Chardonnay (12 Bottles) is a classic cool-climate Chardonnay from Western Australia’s Great Southern region, crafted in a richer, more traditional style. The nose is expressive and layered, showing ripe peach, melon and citrus, complemented by notes of toasted oak, vanilla and a touch of buttered brioche.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with a creamy texture balanced by fresh acidity. Stone fruit and citrus flavours are supported by gentle oak and a subtle savoury complexity, leading to a smooth, rounded and lingering finish. The style is generous yet balanced, offering richness with structure and drinkability.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is perfect for customers who enjoy fuller-bodied, “old school” Chardonnay with noticeable oak influence and a creamy mouthfeel. Ideal for pairing with food or enjoying on its own. Drink now or over the next 3–5 years. Perfect with roasted chicken, creamy pasta, seafood or pork dishes.
