Creamy, honest, elegant.

Another strong wine in Michael Bartier's portfolio, this elegant Chardy rolls out lemon meringue and smoked spices, honeycomb and yellow apples, melon and coriander with stony mineral undertones. Creamy and spicy, nutty and laden with golden fruit and lemon curds it has a creamy smoothly-laced palate and long fresh finish.

Fresh, zesty, elegant.

Another strong wine in Michael Bartier's portfolio, this elegant Chardonnay comes from two blocks on the home estate Cerqueira Vineyard.
A nose of straw and white orchard fruits, pomelo, wildflower honey and faint roasted hazelnut leads to a crisp, dry and racy palate with crunchy yellow apples and mineral flavours. Long and lovely and Chablis-esque.
Pair: Roast chicken, smoked Gouda grilled cheese, creamy pastas, halibut.

Focused, honest, elegant.

Another strong wine in Michael Bartier's portfolio, this elegant Chardy has fresh and zesty notes of lemon and yellow apples, crushed stone and orchard flowers. The palate is as focused and unadulterated as the nose; yellow fruit and faint spice flavours. It's balanced and fresh.
Pair: Roast chicken, smoked Gouda grilled cheese, creamy pastas, halibut.

Golden, honest, elegant.

Another honest wine from Bartier Bros., this richly hued Chardy offers beeswax, grilled baguette dripping with butter, toasted hazelnuts, brown spices, marmalade and honey. It has an attractive oxidative character with undertones of lemon peel, crunchy white fruit and mineral. It is quite succulent, with umami flavours rolling over the tongue.
Overall, elegant, toasty, ripe and entirely unique.
Pair: Roast chicken, smoked Gouda grilled cheese, creamy pastas, halibut.
