SHAW & SMITH M3 CHARDONNAY MUSEUM RELEASE 2017 - white

Style : Savoury & DetailedCousins Martin Shaw and Michael Hill Smith MW already had unbeatable experience when they founded Shaw + Smith as a virtual winery in 1989. In 1999, Martin and Michael purchased the 36ha Balhannah property, building the superbly designed winery in and planting more sauvignon blanc, shiraz, pinot noir and riesling. The 20ha Lenswood vineyard, 10km northwest of the winery, is planted to chardonnay and pinot noir, as is a high-density vineyard in the Piccadilly Valley. -JAMES HALLIDAYRe-releasing in tiny quantities under the Shaw + Smith maturation program; allowing the wines to gain a level of complexity from careful bottle aging in our temperature-controlled cellar.From a cool and late vintage with above average rainfall. This wine is delicate and detailed, but not at the expense of flavour. The palate is long and opulent, showing lovely tertiary characters of hazelnut from time in bottle.
