This wine boasts melon, white peach, and citrus notes with floral and nectarine aromas, intense Chardonnay flavors, ginger, and a touch of almond from French oak," absolutely exceptional".

Description
The winemaking team of Tim Freeland and Domenic Torzi source precious vines from the Adelaide Plains, Barossa Valley and the Adelaide Hills’ hamlet of Forreston.
Coupled with their non-interventional approach to winemaking, Longhop wines are lush, generous and full of flavour - and arguably some of the absolute best value wines in the country.
Longhop aim for elegance, restraint and fruit purity. There’s generosity of flavour, incredible intensity and freshness to the melon, white peach and subtle citrus characters. To smell it’s lifted with white flowers, citrus, and nectarine notes, then follows with flavourful and intense pure Chardonnay characters, lovely ginger and stone fruit notes then finishing with just a brush of almond nuttiness via the French oak. Superb wine.
