£48.00
In stock
Grosset Piccadilly 2020 Chardonnay from Adelaide Hills in Australia embodies refinement and elegance. Adelaide Hills is known for producing some of the best cool-climate Chardonnay in the world. The wine is fermented in French oak barrels for 10 months, adding complexity and depth.
The vineyards are situated in the Piccadilly Valley of the Adelaide Hills. Given that the replanting of vineyards in the Adelaide Hills has only occurred since the early 1980s, their full potential is only just emerging. The south-facing site has predominantly mottled, coarse-grained yellow clays and quartz-rich soil over sandstone.

'97 Points. Pale quartz-green. Grosset's oenological mastery comes down to three words: purity, balance and length. The late wine writer Tony Keys' approach was, 'When I taste a wine from a well-regarded winery I start with the maximum score (of 10) and deduct 0.1 for each fault.' He would have given this wine the maximum. I'm almost there.' James Halliday - Halliday Wine Companion
Grape: Chardonnay
On the nose, enticing aromas of honeydew and nectarine are followed by notes of white peach and cashew. The palate is intense and focused with a vibrant, elegant finish.
The 2020 Chardonnay pairs beautifully with lobster in butter sauce, pork tenderloin or a mushroom risotto.
