The Bouchard Finlayson Missionvale Chardonnay is an impressive wine with a solid backbone and an incredibly long and lingering palate. Nuances of pineapple, white pear and finely roasted hazelnuts give a lively and long lasting mouthfeel. The sovereign wooding in selected oak barrels contributes to the remarkable complexity, creaminess and structure, which ensures excellent ageing potential and will unfold nutty nuances in the wine over time.

The grapes for this Chardonnay were fermented in the classic Burgundy style, with extensive time on the lees. The wine then matured for 9 months in 33% new French oak. This maturation period contributed significantly to its remarkably velvety texture.
