Lively, zesty, fresh.
The Bard label is a nod to a lyric poet that lived on the Hollick estate in a cottage. This boutique winery, established in 1983, is located in the famed Coonawarra, in the Limestone Coast Wine Zone of South Australia, Hollick produces wines only from estate-grown fruit. Coonawarra is recognized as one of Australia's finest wine regions and is particularly known for Cabernet Sauvignon, which responds exceptionally well in its red terra rossa soils over limestone. Pure underground water and a long cool ripening season for the grapes produce wines of elegance and longevity.
The Chardonnay shows toasted hazelnut and pineapple, yellow apples, vanilla, honey and grilled lemon aromas. It has a toasty palate that is fresh and zesty; yellow fruit and spice flavours dominate. It has a lively finish.
