This is the fifth vintage of the Simpsons' flagship still wine, The Roman Road Chardonnay, to be released. Created using Estate-grown Burgundian still clone 548, the grapes were hand-harvested during the last week of October in order to find the perfect balance of aroma, flavour and acidity.
Exuding a true sense of place, this elegant single-vineyard, still Chardonnay is created from fruit specially selected for its maturity and concentration.
Pale straw hued, with a complex matrix of tropical and citrus fruit, subtle butterscotch and flint on the nose, this Chardonnay shows excellent, ripe fruit intensity balanced with an elegant minerality, fresh citrus flavours and touches of cedar.
