2016 Woodlands Wilyabrup Valley Chardonnay 0,75 Liter

Woodlands Wilyabrup Valley Chardonnay 2016, from Western Australia’s Margaret River, is a 100% Chardonnay sourced from the Wilyabrup subregion’s gravelly loam soils. The nose reveals a vibrant bouquet of green apple, lemon curd, and white peach, layered with brioche, vanilla, and a subtle minerality from the region’s maritime-influenced terroir. The palate is medium to full-bodied, with crisp acidity and a creamy texture, delivering flavors of citrus, stone fruit, and a hint of toasted almond. Aged for 10 months in French oak (40% new), it offers a refined, lingering finish with excellent aging potential. Perfect for pairing with lobster, roasted poultry, or aged cheeses, this Chardonnay reflects Woodlands’ artisanal precision and commitment to quality. The 2016 vintage, marked by balanced conditions, produced a wine of remarkable complexity, offering a sophisticated Margaret River white for enthusiasts seeking richness and elegance. Its harmonious flavor profile and structured finesse make it a standout choice for collectors, capturing the essence of Wilyabrup’s cool-climate terroir.
