NielsonbyByronSantaBarberaChardonnay2018

A rich and lush Chardonnay with typical American exuberance and character.

Lush and smooth in the palate with ripe melon followed by hints of honey and brown spice. Full-flavoured and rich in body. A cracking wine to enjoy with a Sunday roast chicken with all the trimmings.

Santa Barbara’s first commerical vineyard dedicated to Chardonnay and Pinot Noir was planted in 1964 by pioneer Uriel Neilson. The Neilson winery pays homage to his vision for the region, once thought to be too cold to grow grapes.
